Former UFC lightweight champion Khabib Nurmagomedov stepped away from competition when he was at the top of his game – and now he signals he might do the same after an elite year of coaching. Following multiple reports from Russian news outlets, Nurmagomedov on Saturday shared a post from Za Khabiba , a Nurmagomedov-centric Instagram page, which displayed a picture of the UFC Hall of Famer with the following caption (translated from Russian to English). “Khabib is leaving the MMA industry.
