Rizvan Magomedov exclusively for Telecom Asia Sport
Umar is a very smart fighter who always seeks improvement. I’ve known him for many years, and he doesn't like to remain stagnant. He tries to get better in every way. A good example of such work is Islam Makhachev, who learned from his loss. He’s completely overhauled his fighting strategy and now dominates the division. Umar’s defeat should benefit him. Next year, we may see him compete for a title again.

On January 19 at UFC 311, Umar Nurmagomedov suffered the first defeat of his career in the fight against Merab Dvalishvili. The match for the UFC bantamweight championship ended with a unanimous decision victory for the Georgian athlete.
