Khabib Nurmagomedov Teases UFC Comeback with Intense Training Regimen
MMA fans are buzzing with excitement as Khabib Nurmagomedov hints at a possible return to the octagon. The 35-year-old retired undefeated following a victory over Justin Gaethje in October 2020, leaving fans stunned. Despite UFC President Dana White’s attempts to sway him, Nurmagomedov relinquished the lightweight title and stepped away from the sport.
However, recent training footage shared by the former champion has sparked speculation about a potential comeback. Nurmagomedov has been training vigorously alongside his protege Islam Makhachev, who is set to defend his lightweight crown against Dustin Poirier at UFC 302 on June 1. Fans have been quick to praise Nurmagomedov’s form and conditioning, expressing hopes for a return to action.
While Nurmagomedov has not addressed the comeback rumors directly, his training videos have reignited the possibility of a rematch with longtime rival Conor McGregor. McGregor, who has been vocal about his desire for a second bout with Nurmagomedov, recently taunted the Russian fighter over alleged financial issues.
As speculation mounts and anticipation grows, MMA enthusiasts eagerly await further developments on a potential Nurmagomedov comeback and the prospect of a rematch with McGregor. Only time will tell if the former champion will grace the octagon once again.
