Nurmagomedov named his most desired opponent in Bellator

Bellator lightweight champion Usman Nurmagomedov said that in the finals of the Grand Prix of the promotion he would like to share the cage with his compatriot Alexander Chablius.

“I think it’s Chablius. He won the fight in the quarterfinals of the Grand Prix. Now let's see how he performs against Patricky Freire in the semi-finals. I defeated Freire easily.

Alexander is a good fighter, tough. If he beats Freire and I also win my fight, I would like to meet him in the final,” the Dagestani said in an interview with the Shak MMA YouTube channel.

Let us remind you that on the night of October 8, in the main event of the Bellator 300 tournament in San Diego, USA, Nurmagomedov will meet with Brent Primus.
