Khabib Nurmagomedov has had one hell of a journey as a fighter. The former UFC lightweight champion journeyed from rags to riches and is now one of the most powerful men in his country. Khabib has become a very successful personality and has made some very powerful friends as well.

Recently, in an episode of the Full Send Podcast, Nurmagomedov spoke about the craziest gift he’s received. He revealed that people have gifted him many cars. However, they do not appeal to him much and he didn’t seem to be blown away by them.

He said,” I’m not a fan. I’m gonna be honest. Of course, I like (cars). But I know like a lot of people, they’ll fend like crazy. You know it’s like they have money, they buy cars.”

Khabib said that he once received a dog as a gift from a person and he said it was ‘very good gift’ for him. However, he was not gifted any ordinary dog.

On the podcast, he revealed, “ This dog from mother’s side grandfather, and from father’s side grandfather, they both world champions. Can you imagine? I know it’s American people crazy, you know. They like dog fight. Honestly, I don’t like this (dog fight).”
