‘The Eagle’ during his time in the UFC trained at one of the most famous MMA gyms in the world, the American Kickboxing Academy. He honed his skills with the head coach Javier Hernandez, former UFC champion Daniel Cormier and more.
Whilst his training at the gym, Nurmagomedov grew a good bond with the team members at the AKA gym. And they all frequently shared videos of their training and funny moments on their YouTube channel for the fans.
In one such video, the AKA team members pulled a prank on the former UFC lightweight champion. One of the team members sat inside a box and coach Mendez asked a few people before Nurmagomedov to check the kits inside the box. And as they reached out to check, they got pranked by the member sitting inside.

Before Nurmagomedov, even his friend Islam Makhachev got pranked, but he didn’t flinch. Meanwhile, the team members were successful in scaring ‘The Eagle’ as he approached to check the box.

‘The Eagle’ will go down as one of the most dominant fighters in the history of the sport, as he has never lost a fight in his entire UFC career. He has a perfect career record of 29-0 under his name.
