Fans more or less know who Sharaputdin Magomedov was before he even stepped foot inside the Octagon in 2023. He’s been successful in all his three fights so far, and now he’s back in action again in the UAE at UFC 308. But before he steps up to fight Armen Petrosyan this weekend, let’s get to know the undefeated ‘Bullet’ from a personal standpoint.

There are multiple videos of Sharaputdin Magomedov’s MMA career highlights on social media. That’s what fans like to talk about the most, but they don’t seem to know anything about his family. So, let’s first take a look at his significant other because the Russian star has a wife as well.

Who is Sharaputdin Magomedov’s wife? Do they have kids together?

Sharaputdin Magomedov is a relative newcomer in the UFC, so there’s hardly any information available on his married life. Hence, we don’t know what his wife’s name is, but he has mentioned her while talking about a difficult time in their lives. Magomedov might be in a better place financially after signing with Dana White’s promotion, but in the past, he had struggled a bit.

The 30-year-old undefeated up-and-comer opened up during an interview that his wife, whose identity he didn’t reveal, had an affinity towards drinking coffee and eating ice cream. During the early days of their marriage, their financial situation got so bad that Magomedov claimed to have stopped his wife from consuming these two products.

“I even feel a little bit ashamed telling you this. Sometimes my wife would get some coffee and ice cream, At some point, I had to restrict her from coffee. On other occasions, I had to restrict her from ice cream. Certainly, she was not ready for that,” Sharaputdin Magomedov told ‘Red Corner MMA’.

Meanwhile, there’s also no word on if Sharaputdin Magomedov and his wife have any children together. That sums up his married life, now let’s take a look at his younger years, especially his upbringing.

More about Sharaputdin Magomedov’s early life

Born in the city of Makhachkala, which is also the hometown of UFC legend Khabib Nurmagomedov, Sharaputdin Magomedov is a devout Muslim and has often been seen standing up for his religion whenever he needs to. As we’ve mentioned already, he maintains a low profile, which is why his parents’ identities have also remained a mystery to fans.

Given how good a fighter ‘Bullet’ has proven to be, it might come as a surprise to many people that some sources claim that the 30-year-old preferred playing soccer, which was also the first sport he ever played. However, certain personal issues led him to get kicked out of the team he played for, and would later switch to combat sports, especially boxing, and even became a national champion.

Combat sports have served him well, and now as an MMA fighter, Sharaputdin Magomedov could very well be in his prime as he remains undefeated. But can he edge past Armen Petrosyan? That remains to be seen.
