Khabib Nurmagomedov, the former UFC lightweight champion, has spoken out about loosing weight.
"Loosing weight had no effect on the end of my career. I told everybody I'd show them how to do it right. But it was never in my mind that I was going to finish because of it. It even gives me some pleasure. When you set a goal, execute and get the emotion - you don't get that anywhere else. When you do the weight and then win, you don't get that anywhere else. I've lost about a ton in my whole career. If I have to lose 20 kilos, I saw no problem in this," the fighter said.
