The original artwork of Khabib Nurmagomedov and his father was done by Boss Logic and it lit up a Dagestan building
Boss Logic is known for some incredible designs and he has done a lot of work for MMA fighters over the years.
However, one of his best MMA pieces features Khabib Nurmagomedov and his father, Abdulmanap.
This was done after Abdulmanap passed away this year and it was a huge loss for Khabib. The UFC Lightweight Champion, nevertheless, made an emotional return to the Octagon and defeated Justin Gaethje with ease.
Khabib then retired from MMA but his legacy and that of his father lives on. Logic’s incredible piece sees Abdulmanap and Khabib walk side by side. This same artwork was then put onto a building in the city of Derbent, Dagestan and it looks incredible.
The video from Boss Logic also shows that one person is still working on this huge mural and it is a great piece of art.
Khabib is extremely close to his family and losing his father and mentor was the main reason why he retired from MMA.
He also cited a promise made to his mother that the Gaethje fight would be his last. While Khabib is a man of his word, Dana White doesn’t believe the Russian is done.
The UFC president hasn’t vacated the Lightweight title and believes Khabib will be back for his 30th fight.
Khabib is 29-0 in his MMA career and many have already called him the greatest MMA star of all-time. It will be interesting to see if the lure of the 30-0 streak sees Khabib make a return.
The Russian will still go down as one of the greatest ever, regardless of his record, but 30-0 does have a special feeling to it.
