Coach Khabib Nurmagomedov returns to action this month, as he has a tight schedule coming up

Khabib Nurmagomedov has taken to coaching seriously after officially announcing his retirement, not less than a year ago.

The Russian has been training his fellow Dagestanis and cousins for their respective fights across different promotions.

He has a packed July coming up, as his main man Islam Makhachev headlines UFC Fight Night on the 17th of July. The up and coming lightweight takes on Thiago Moises in a crucial lightweight bout.

Abubakar Nurmagomedov faces Daniel Rodriguez that same night. Two weeks from the 17th of July, Khabib’s cousin Usman Nurmagomedov faces Luis Muro at Bellator 263.

Makhachev, Abubakar and Usman have a combined win-loss record of 47 wins and just 4 losses.

Khabib is back in his coach Javier Mendez’s AKA gym. In a recent video shared by Mendez, Khabib can be seen exhibiting his strictness and discipline while training a boatload of members at the gym.

He can be seen saying:

“Someone tired, they can go home… [they can] cry too.”
