Nurmagomedov chose the community of Abuja in Nigeria's capital to help repair water wells and build medical centers.

In his last battle in the Octagon, Khabib submitted Conor McGregor with a rear naked choke in the fourth round at UFC 229. At the end of the fight, the Russian started an all-out fight by jumping out of the cage and attacking the Irishman's trainer, Dillon Danis. Because of this, the lightweight champion is suspended indefinitely and has had his salary withheld.
