As UFC 308 approaches this weekend, MMA content creator and UFC internet personality Nina Marie Daniele is gearing up to showcase the unique sides of fighters like Sean Strickland and Tom Aspinall. Known for her exceptional interviewing skills, Daniele doesn’t just conduct interviews; she immerses herself in the fighters’ routines during fight week, even joining them for training sessions.

However, this time, Nina Marie Daniele finds herself in the spotlight for a different reason, being the sole woman at the event, with no female fighters featured on the Abu Dhabi card. Recently, Daniele participated in a training session with Dagestani sensation Sharabutdin Magomedov, who boasts an undefeated record of 14-0. Since joining the UFC, he has secured three consecutive victories and now looks to extend his streak against Armen Petrosyan at Etihad Arena in Abu Dhabi during UFC 308 this weekend.

In a recent reel posted by the UFC-Eurasia Instagram page, Magomedov was seen showcasing his striking skills with Nina Marie Daniele, and at one point, he nearly hit her in the head, drawing significant attention from fans.

The video rapidly gained traction online, prompting responses from viewers, many of whom criticized ‘Nak Muay’ for his rough demonstration, noting the potential risk of injury to Daniele. Let’s take a look at the fans’ reactions.

Fans criticize Sharabutdin Magomedov for ‘Dangerous’ leg kick at Nina Marie Daniele

Today, after witnessing Nina Marie Daniele’s training session with Sharabutdin Magomedov, critics and haters who once labeled her as “cringe” might now question their opinions about her work. Marie Daniele is overcoming all the negativity, cementing herself as the much-needed ‘media face’ of the promotion. She is aware of her role, as she commented on a post from UFC Eurasia, stating, “My job is more dangerous than it seems.” This sentiment became even more apparent during her training session with Magomedov.

There was also some backlash against the Dagestani sensation for being too harsh on Nina Marie Daniele. One fan commented, “Don’t rush, brother,” while another fan, taking a jab at Magomedov, suggested that Marie Daniele might already regret training with him, saying, “She already regretted contacting him behind the scenes; they are sedating him for testosterone scalitis.” Moreover, Nina Marie has become the face of the UFC for fostering a stronger connection between its fighters and the fans, contributing to the promotion’s continuous growth and popularity.

With the internet serving as a powerful platform, the comments section has become divided. Some fans questioned Magomedov’s morals for training with a woman, reminding him of his past altercations where he had fights with a couple of people in public for being too close to each other. Meanwhile, one fan defended Magomedov’s actions, saying, “Shara behaves like a child when he sees Nina; he remembers his childhood.”

However, most comments criticized the Dagestani for his harsh training methods on a girl who had never been in a real fight. Despite participating in training sessions with fighters like Alex Pereira, where she was once taken down by a leg kick, a fan corrected Magomedov, commenting, “Why did you beat Nina so hard? She’s a good one,” echoing sentiments from another user who added, “Take your time, bro.”

Now all eyes are on the upcoming UFC 308. Do you believe that after this incident, Dana White and the company should take notice of the situation, which could significantly affect Nina Marie Daniele, considering her videos play a vital role in promotional activities? Drop your opinion below.
