<h2 style="text-align: center"><strong>Who is Islam Makhachev?</strong></h2>
Islam Makhachev came to the UFC as one of the young vibrant talents. The Dagestani fighter made his promotional debut in 2015 against Leo Kuntz at the undercard of his teammate Daniel Cormier's coronation as UFC champion.
<figure class="jsx-b9c5e7fc3c08d611">

<figcaption>via Getty</figcaption></figure>
Makhachev has grown up and trained with the legendÂ <a class="es-hyperlink" href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/khabib-nurmagomedov/" target="_self" rel="noopener">Khabib Nurmagomedov</a>. As of October 2023, 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 Makhachevâ€™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.
<h2 style="text-align: center"><strong>Â Islam Makhachevâ€™s wife and kids</strong></h2>
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. Although not much is known about team Khabib's protege, reportedly, the fighter got hitched on April 8, 2021. Other than this and a snap of him and his bride in a white gown, not much is known about the wife.

Several notable UFC stars were also in attendance, such as Khabib Nurmagomedov, Zubaira Tughukov, and so on. Apart from this, as is the case for most Dagestani fighters, apart from an interview wherein he mentioned about his daughter, no other information is present about his kid.

While in conversation with Megan Olivi, Makhachev disclosed, "<em>Couple of months, I have been thinking about my daughter. I just want to come home."</em>
<h2 style="text-align: center"><strong>Islam Makhachevâ€™s net worth 2024</strong></h2>
As of 2024, Makhachev has an estimated net worth of over $1.5 million. His net worth is expected to rise significantly, considering his ascent to success and phenomenal title reign.

<h2 class="jsx-cb26a7af5694ead9" style="text-align: center"><strong>Islam Makhachevâ€™s career timeline</strong></h2>
Makhachev signed a four-fight contract when he made his smacking debut in the UFC. As aforementioned, his first opponent in the UFC was Leo Kuntz, whom he defeated in a thrilling match via submission in the second round of the bout.

Another of his greatest fights was with Davi Ramos at UFC 242. The Russian proved himself and won the match via a unanimous decision.

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.

In his recent run, Makhachev defeatedÂ <a class="es-hyperlink" href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/tag/thiago-moises/" target="_self" rel="noopener">Thiago Moises</a>Â on July 17, 2021, as he claimed a magnificent submission (rear-naked choke) victory in the fourth round.

His next win came against Bobby Green, who stepped up to face the Dagestan-based athlete on short notice. Next, he facedÂ <strong>Charles Oliveira</strong> for the UFC lightweight title and won via a 2nd round submission.

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>. Thereafter, for their second bout in UFC 294, the Dagestani continued his reign by securing a win with a head kick and hammer fists in the first round itself!

Now for his next fight, Makhachev is slated against Dustin Poirier as the main event for the upcoming UFC PPV 302.
<h2 style="text-align: center"><strong>Islam Makhachevâ€™s partnerships and endorsements</strong></h2>
Makhachev has made several endorsement deals over the years.
