The 30-year-old Magomedsharipov had his last fight in November 2019, winning by unanimous decision over Kelvin Kattar.

In April this year, Zabit was removed from the UFC welterweight division rankings due to inactivity. Prior to that, he was ranked third. In July, his manager reported that the Russian has serious immune system issues and could end his career.
