Muhammad: "In Khabib's gym, all the fighters are real hitmen"

Top UFC welterweight Belal Muhammad spoke about his training with Khabib Nurmagomedov's team.

"In Khabib's gym all fighters are real killers. You don't win a single round easily. They don't try to humiliate you, they don't try to hurt you - they try to make you better. I gave up many times during sparring sessions with Makhachev. And they always gave me sound advice. They make you work. Let's say Khabib keeps you down for five minutes. The round is over, and they say, "Work until you can't get off the ground." Mentally I've gotten a lot stronger, they taught me not to give up," Muhammad told MMA News.
