Former UFC lightweight champion Khabib Nurmagomedov had to personally comment on the rumors about his participation in the UFC 300 tournament after this information was repeated by his friend Zlatan Ibrahimovic.
“UFC 300, Khabib Nurmagomedov,” the famous Swedish footballer wrote on social networking site, posting a joint photo with the undefeated Russian.
“UFC 300 will be without me, just like UFC 400,” Nurmagomedov commented on Ibrahimovich’s words.
Earlier information that Khabib Nurmagomedov is preparing for a fight with the current UFC champion in the welterweight category, Leon Edwards, was announced by the former challenger for the UFC middleweight and flyweight titles, Chel Sonnen.
The American stated that the retired Russian had already begun training for the fight under the guidance of coach Javier Mendes, which forced the head coach of the “American Kickboxing Academy” to issue an official denial of this information.
Recall that the UFC 300 tournament will take place on April 13 in Las Vegas, but for now the anniversary event remains without a main event.
