AKA Hall of Famer Javier Mendes said that current Bellator lightweight champion Usman Nurmagomedov is the most talented fighter he has ever trained.

"The most talented fighter I've ever trained is Usman Nurmagomedov. Unfortunately, he's not on everyone's radar because he doesn't compete in the UFC.

You don't get the recognition you deserve until you fight in the UFC, and he deserves it. I'm guessing the PFL and Bellator won't want to let him go because he's already a superstar. He will perform in the PFL and Bellator for another five to ten years, until he leaves the sport," - quotes the specialist MMA Mania.

Recall that on May 17 at the Bellator Champions Series 2 tournament in Paris, France, Nurmagomedov will fight Alexander Shabliy.
