Khabib Nurmagomedov claims his cousin Abubakar Nurmagomedov lost the fight to Demetrius Johnson.
‘Mighty Mouse’ is currently helping coach Khabib prepare for the upcoming title fight between Islam Makhachev and Umar Nurmagomedov. Makhachev will defend his lightweight title against Arman Tsarukyan in the main event, but Umar will defend the bantamweight strap against Merab in the co-main event of UFC 311 on January 18th at the Intuit Dome in Los Angeles.・Challenge Dvalishvili.
Johnson recently uploaded footage from the Dagestan camp, where he can be seen spending quality time with the team in addition to training sessions. One of the clips features Khabib accusing the fellow GOAT candidate of making Abubakar lose the match. Khabib recalled that Abubakar lost the match due to excessive computer gaming with Johnson. Johnson’s obsession with the game is well known in MMA.
“Playing with Abubakar? Because of you, you always take him to a match and he loses one match,” Khabib said. “I remember this.”
Johnson admitted he was a close competitor with Abubakar at one point, but said he hadn’t seen the Dagestan play in a while.
“I, Abubakar. We used to be like this. [really close]good shooter, good play,” Johnson said. “But now I haven’t seen him play for a long time.”
Habib said Abubakar’s gaming career ended when they broke his computer.
“Because we would destroy his computer,” Habib said. “I know you think we’re joking, but we broke his computer.”
Abubakar is 2-2 in the UFC, with his win streak coming to an end at two with a split decision loss to Elizeu Zaleski dos Santos. Nurmagomedov was taken off the UFC roster in February and signed with the newly formed promotion’s Global Fight League earlier this month.
