It remains to be seen when and who Khabib Nurmagomedov fights again, but 50 Cent, yes, 50 Cent, is hoping to bring the UFC’s lightweight champ to Bellator.
Khabib Nurmagomedov has been known to throw some words into the mix, while beating down his opponents in the Octagon, and that was the case at UFC 229.
Leading up to last weekend’s UFC 229 event, plenty of people predicted it would be the biggest card in the promotion’s history, and it looks like that is indeed the case.
