UFC lightweight Dan Hooker explained why former champion of the promotion in this weight class Khabib Nurmagomedov is a unique fighter.

“The enemy of any fighter is time. There was only one athlete with an impeccable record. That’s Khabib. You don’t think he ended his career saying, “No one can challenge me anymore, I’m out.” He is just a very smart fighter. He has never been defeated. And he knew that if he continued to take risks, he was risking. He is very smart, and he is the only fighter in MMA history who came and went with such a flawless record,” Hooker said on Sky Sports.
