Khabib Nurmagomedov

Khabib Nurmagomedov is preparing to battle Tony Ferguson at UFC 249, April 18th, in what many believe could be the greatest, lightweight fight to date. Well, as the highly anticipated bout approaches, it looks like “Anatomy of a Fighter” is going to be documenting Khabib’s camp once again.

Prelude to UFC 249

Recently “Anatomy of a Fighter” shared out the video below, which captures Khabib and his team doing some training at the UFC Performance Institute in Las Vegas (Khabib also does some rolling with the UFC’s Dan Ige). Nurmagomedov was in Las Vegas last weekend to attend a pre-fight presser for UFC 249, as well as an event for Dominance MMA, his management team.

The video also features Khabib’s younger cousin, and recent UFC signing, Umar Nurmagomedov. If you’re a big fan of the lightweight champ, it’s definitely worth a watch.
