Khabib to help his brother prepare for battle

Andrew Karlov Aug. 3, 2021, 10:49 a.m.

Former UFC lightweight champion Khabib Nurmagomedov will help his second cousin Shamil Zavurov to prepare for his fight against Nariman Abbasov. This was announced by Zavurov himself.

“Khabib will definitely help me, tomorrow he will fly home. Khabib will help Islam Makhachev and Magomedrasul Khasbulaev. Is it dangerous for me to fight Khabib now, because he has become larger? Well, I think they will work with me a little neatly, as with a veteran. In fact, no matter how I sparred against Khabib and Islam, there were never any injuries. It's more possible with young, inexperienced guys."

Zavurov and Abbasov to fight in September at the tournament in memory of Abdulmanap Nurmagomedov.
