Cousin of Khabib Nurmagomedov and one of the most complete fighters at 135, with his only career loss a decision to Merab Dvalishvili in a title fight at UFC 311. He blends Dagestani wrestling with accurate striking and absorbs under two significant strikes a minute, the profile of a fighter who rarely loses moments. He rebuilt with wins over Mario Bautista and Deiveson Figueiredo and now headlines in Shanghai against Song Yadong.
