“Conor and Khabib Had a Baby” – Fans Go Into Meltdown as UFC Signs Terrifying Dagestani ‘Who Can Kick’

Russian fighters have dominated the domain of the UFC. All of it started with Khabib Nurmagomedov, who charged into the sport with all guns blazing and destroyed every opponent he ever fought. Following this, several allies of the undefeated lightweight entered the promotion and solidified their positions with each battle they fought. And now there’s news that the UFC has inked a contract with yet another fighter from ‘The Eagle’s homeland, who seems to be just as dangerous as any other member of ‘Team Khabib’. The 28-year-old Sharaputdin Magomedov. As incredible as this news is, a knockout video of the fighter has gone viral online, proving that this Dagestani is more than just a great wrestler. He also has terrifyingly strong attacks.

According to the reports, the UFC has signed a multi-fight deal with Sharaputdin Magomedov who is expected to enter the promotion sometime in mid-2023. The 28-year-old currently holds a 17-0-0 record under his belt with 13 clean knockouts. And that fascinated the UFC fans the most. The fact that it’s a Dagestani whose forte apparently isn’t wrestling, given all the knockouts to his credit.

One such clip of Sharaputdin Magomedov knocking out the opponent with a vicious kick surfaced online, and it immediately got all the fans talking about the fighter.

Although not much is known about the Dagestani just yet, what little is documented indicates that this fighter means business, to say the least.

The UFC community awaits Sharaputdin Magomedov

Check out how the MMA fans reacted to the knockout by the upcoming UFC fighter:

One fan appeared overwhelmed by the Russian dominance in the UFC:

“Jesus how many mogomedovs are there”

Another fan forecasted a championship outcome for ten years down the road::

“In 10 years all the champs will be from dagestan”

Additionally, some fans were taken aback to see Dagestani hurl attacks:

“omg it’s a medov that can actually strike”

“Last name ending in -magomedov already dangerous but now they kick?! They’re evolving..”

However, one fan refuted the notion of the ‘Dagestani that can strike’ in the post by citing the Islam Makhachev vs. Charles Oliveira fight:

“saying a dag that can strike like islam didn’t knock down and destroy charles in stand up”

Sharaputdin Magomedov is an important addition to the middleweight division, feels one fan:

“exactly what middleweight needs”

According to one user, just being from Russia speaks volumes:

“Don’t even doubt when the fighter is from Russia”

Can wrestle and strike both? There’s only one way to explain it to that, as per this supporter:

“conor and khabib had a baby”

Based on the reactions the fighter is receiving from the crowd, his entrance into the UFC will generate a tremendous amount of hype.

An intriguing fact about the fighter is that he has a serious eye condition in one of his eyes and underwent 8 major surgeries. It consequently forced the fighter to take a two-year break from training. But today, he stands strong and is undefeated.
