“In the sixth tournament, he won the championship belt. To win this belt, he needed to beat three rivals in one evening. I respect what Khabib does, but he fights twice a year. This is much easier...” the functionary said.

UFC Russia considers the first Russian champion of promotion to be Khabib Nurmagomedov.
