Khabib Nurmagomedov and life after retirement

Following his retirement, Khabib Nurmagomedov has transitioned well into the role of a coach for his fellow fighters. He is undefeated as a coach this year and has cornered the likes of Umar Nurmagomedov, Islam Makhachev, and Abubakar Nurmagomedov, among others this year. 

On top of that, ‘The Eagle’ currently owns and operates the MMA promotion Eagle FC. The promotion is a feeder league to the UFC.  

During this time away from the sport, Dana White and the UFC have tried to lure him back. They have offered the likes of Georges St-Pierre for a comeback fight. However, ‘The Eagle’ has refused all offers and claims that now it is time for his prodigy, Islam Makhachev, to take over the reins. Makhachev is just a win or two away from fighting for the UFC lightweight strap.

Do you think Islam Makhachev will be able to follow Khabib Nurmagomedov’s footsteps and claim undisputed UFC gold? Let us know in the comments below!
