Some of the most notable names training under ‘The Eagle’ include Islam Makhachev and Tagir Ulanbekov. Interestingly, one more feather has been added to Khabib’s coach cap after his undefeated cousin Umar Nurmagomedov made his UFC debut last year. Umar is currently 2-0 in the UFC.
In his last outing at UFC 272, Umar defeated the UFC veteran Brian Kelleher in the first round via submission. Following Umar’s octagon interview, Joe Rogan mispronounced his name by mistake. However, the former lightweight champion decided to have fun with him.
