Islam Makhachev [https://www.essentiallysports.com/stories/mma-ufc-vegas-31-news-best-performances-in-the-ufc-by-khabib-nurmagomedovs-protege-islam-makhachev/] As the UFC is the highest-paying promotion in the world, fighters avoid leaving the company.

<figcaption>via Getty</figcaption></figure>
Makhachev has grown up and trained with the legend <a class="es-hyperlink" href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/khabib-nurmagomedov/" target="_self" rel="noopener">Khabib Nurmagomedov</a>. As of January 2025, Makhachev is the UFC lightweight champion. The young fighter is proficient in <a class="es-hyperlink" href="https://www.allthebestfights.com/makhachev-vs-tsarukyan-full-fight-video-ufc-fn-149/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Combat Sambo, </a>where he was the 2016 World Champion.
<h2 style="text-align: center"><strong>Islam Makhachev's early life</strong></h2>
Makhachev was born in Makhachkala, Burshi, Republic of Dagestan, Russia. Born on 27 October 1991, the Dagestani had humble beginnings, to a father who used to grow tomatoes and worked odd jobs as a driver and to a housewife mother, who ran a small cafe. Both their names have not been disclosed to the public. He also has an older brother, Kurbanismail. The family belongs to the Lak ethnicity, speaks the Laki language, and are devout followers of Islam.

Amidst speculations owing to rumors and a video that showcased the UFC fighter at what seemed like a wedding reception, we now have confirmation that Makhachev is a married man.

Makhachev's only loss in UFC was against Adriano Martins at?UFC 192?on October 3, 2015. Martins dominated right from the start and claimed the bout via a first-round TKO.

At UFC 284, the Russian fighter successfully defended his title againstÂ <a class="es-hyperlink" href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/alexander-volkanovski/" target="_self" rel="noopener">Alexander Volkanovski</a>.
