Khabib Nurmagomedov League puts on pause its activities

The Eagle FC League, owned by Khabib Nurmagomedov, does not plan to hold tournaments in the near future and does not prevent the transfer of its fighters to other organizations.

About it in an interview Igor Lazorin said the president of the Russian promotion Shamil Zavurov.

“I don’t see yet that we will hold a tournament in the near future,” Zavurov said. “We took a break. And if there are no tournaments, it makes no sense to keep the guys, so we let them go if offers come in ”

This pause is primarily due to the fact that its owner decided to move away from promotional activities.

“While they took a break, Khabib decided to take a break from all this, and without Khabib it is very difficult to carry out something, to do something, he went forward like a locomotive. Therefore, now we are thinking how to do all this without Khabib. Need time”

According to Zavurov, the league may resume hosting tournaments if Khabib Nurmagomedov’s duties are taken over by Islam Makhachev and Usman Nurmagomedov, who own the UFC and Bellator lightweight titles.

“We have champion Islam, we have champion Usman – maybe they will somehow want to support the league, go to tournaments”
