The Russian lot has been showing their dominance in the UFC by constantly taking down whoever they face in the cage. It all started with ‘The Eagle’, Khabib Nurmagomedov. He came and he conquered like no other.

Following his lead, a bunch of such dynamic fighters seemed to enter the realm of MMA. And interestingly enough, all these fighters are coming from the same training camp, where ‘The Eagle’ came from. And it’s not only the training camp—each competitor seems to fight with the same intensity that Khabib Nuragomedov did when he competed in the UFC.
