“Preparing for Khabib”- MMA World Reacts Hilariously To ‘Bear’ Training for Revenge Against UFC Superstar

In 1993, the world saw the first-ever UFC event when Royce Gracie beat Gerard Gordeau. Since then, till now, the sport has developed, but Mixed Martial Arts still is a pretty young sport. Often, we see new techniques and training methods through fights and social media. Because of the emergence of social media, many such training methods have received a lot of recognition. In a recent video uploaded by an Instagram page, we can see the same.

In an Instagram video uploaded by MMA uncensored, two men can be seen training in a snowy region. While one man hangs on a branch, the other punches his stomach. Also in the video, one can see a bear behind the men trying to shake a branch. MMA fans around the world had interesting reactions to the video.

While many people had mixed reactions to this video, seeing a bear train with these men might not be a surprise to many. MMA fans also know of a former UFC champion who trained with bears too.

Khabib Nurmagomedov wrestled bears as a kid

When Mixed Martial Arts fans think of dominance, one simply remembers former undefeated UFC lightweight champion Khabib Nurmagomedov.

There is a video from Nurmagomedov’s childhood where he is seen wrestling a bear. In the video, Nurmagomedov can be seen doing his best to land takedowns on the bear.

In a conversation with Megan Olivi, Nurmagomedov described his father putting him into wrestling a bear. ‘The Eagle’ said that when he told his father the bear was biting him, his father replied saying, “Bite him back! No problem. You have to wrestle. You have to keep going.”

Throughout his career, Nurmagomedov has listened to the advice of his father. At UFC 254, after successfully defending his title against Justin Gaethje, Nurmagomedov retired from the sport of Mixed Martial Arts with an undefeated record of 29-0.
