Zhalgas Zhumagulov, a former UFC featherweight division fighter, recalled the level of preparation for fights of the promotion's featherweight champion Ilia Topuria and told how much he spent living and preparing for fights in the United States. "Jaco" noted that it was very expensive.
"In America, to be honest, it's very expensive to live. It turns out, the last six months I was there, and I had five fights in a row. For six months about 70 thousand dollars spent. And imagine what kind of team Topuria has," said the fighter from Kazakhstan.
It should be noted that Zhumagulov's career in the UFC did not go well. He spent in the promotion 7 fights, getting only 1 victory and suffered 6 defeats.
