Umar Nurmagomedov is finally set for his UFC debut. Nurmagomedov (12-0 MMA, 0-0 UFC) will take on Nathaniel Wood (16-4 MMA, 3-1 UFC) on July 25 at Yas Island in Abu Dhabi – also known as “Fight Island.” A person with knowledge of the situation confirmed the booking to MMA Junkie after an initial report from the “Mo Hosani 360” podcast. The person asked to remain anonymous since the promotion has yet to make an official announcement. Nurmagomedov was scheduled to make his UFC debut vs. Hunter Azure in April, but the event was canceled due to the COVID-19 pandemic
