Nurmagomedov believes that Tukhugov can break into the top ten UFC featherweights
Former undefeated MMA fighter Khabib Nurmagomedov believes that Zubaira Tukhugov has every chance to break into the top ten UFC featherweights.
“Last time he had to win despite the injury. He has a lot of potential to get into the top 10 of the UFC featherweight division,” Khabib said at a press conference that took place on December 13 in Moscow. – Zuba, brother, I say again that you are fighting on February 27th. You will soon be assigned an opponent, so get ready. On February 27, it will be seen how much he will progress. In the last fight, it was clear that he performed well. Next time, according to our forecasts, I should perform even better.”
In the main event of the UFC Fight Night tournament, which will take place on the night of February 27, Russian lightweight Islam Makhachev will have a lightweight contender fight against American Beneil Dariush.
The 30-year-old Tukhugov has 20 wins, 5 losses and 1 draw.
