UFC lightweight champion Khabib Nurmagomedov met young athletes of Ingushetia in Russia. Nurmagomedov at the Palace of Sports "Magas" shared with young people the secrets of success and victories, and talked about his sports plans.

"Any of you can become a champion, the main thing is perseverance, it is necessary to approach with due responsibility to trainings, listen to coaches, do not feel sorry for yourself. I went to my title at about 10 fights, and young athletes now want after a victory over two or three serious rivals immediately fight for the title. But serious preparation, patience and diligence are important," Khabib said at the meeting.

"In the middle or at late autumn I will have my next title fight, I value my training so that I do not care who my rival is, I am confident in my victory," Nurmagomedov said.
