Khabib pulls out of grappling fight

Dana White, President of the UFC, said that he tried to persuade Khabiba Nuragomedova resume career. According to the functionary, he wanted to organize a grappling match for him.

“I recently contacted him to see if he was interested in something, but Khabib replied that he was done. I don't think Khabib will ever come back. My suggestion was different. I tried to arrange a grappling match for him. But he replied that he had finished his career. I think when his father died, that was the point for Khabib. He just focused on training other guys and helping them become champions."

Recall that Khabib ended his career in October 2020, having won in a farewell fight with a choke over Justin Gaethje.
