Khabib: "My mom played a very big role in my success"

Famed mixed martial arts fighter, former UFC lightweight champion Khabib Nurmagomedov spoke about his mother's contribution to his life and career.

"My mom is raising my children, my brother's children, my sister's children. In Muslims, the woman should be the back of the man and the man should be the face of the woman. My mom has played a very big role in my success. Perhaps even a bigger role than my father.

We say that mom is the school. Men travel, work. And women educate our children. And of course, my mom put a lot of energy, knowledge, education in me," - quotes Khabib MMA Junkie.

Recall that Nurmagomedov finished his career in the fall of 2020. In his record list of 29 victories and no defeats.
