Dana White Says Abdulmanap Nurmagomedov’s Vision for Khabib and Islam Came True

"Holy sh*t. It played out exactly the way his father said," the UFC president said. He recalled Khabib’s father and coach saying, "Khabib would dominate, and when he’s done, Islam will come in behind him.” Khabib became the UFC’s first Muslim champion in 2018, retiring 29-0, while Makhachev achieved double champion status last night, defeating the welterweight champion Della Maddalena.
