  • Comment: nearlyevil665, Not yet. He got some coverage due to he is related to Khabib and the notability is not inherite. He needs one more fight in UFC which would be soon (sometimes in June/July) after the Ramadan (Nurmagomedow is a Muslim). I believe he will fight again after the fasting month. This draft page is on my upcoming MMA notable fighters watchlist. I will get it publish one he step into the octagon on his third UFC fight) Cassiopeia talk 21:43, 12 March 2022 (UTC)
  • Comment: Cassiopeia, I hope all is well! This fighter is one UFC bout away to become notable but as a MMA notability expert do you think the press coverage is sufficient to warrant for GNG notability? Let me know what you think! Cheers! nearlyevil665 17:57, 12 March 2022 (UTC)

Umar Nurmagomedov (born March 1, 1996), is a Russian mixed martial artist currently competing in the Bantamweight division of the Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC). He has previously competed in the Eagle Fighting Championship (EFC) and Professional Fighters League (PFL). He is the brother of Bellator fighter Usman Nurmagomedov.

Background

Nurmagomedov was born in Kizilyurt, Dagestan, Russia on March 1, 1996. He is the cousin of former UFC lightweight champion Khabib Nurmagomedov.[2]

As a child, living in his native village, with his brother Usman Nurmagomedov, he began to attend the freestyle wrestling section, but after certain interruptions in the work of coaches, he left this occupation. Then Umar began to stubbornly engage in Thai boxing.[3]

After moving to Makhachkala, Umar began training with his uncle, Honored Coach of Russia Abdulmanap Nurmagomedov at the Eagles MMA camp. By ethnic origin, he is an Avar.[3]

Mixed martial arts career

Early career

He made his debut in Moscow as part of the Fight Nights Global 57 on December 16, 2016 against Rishat Kharisov. Umar won via second round guillotine choke. In his sophomore performance, Umar fought Ulukbek Amanbaev at Fight Star: Battle on Sura 6 on January 5, 2017, winning inside the first round by the way of rear-naked choke. Returning to Fight Nights Global for his next 4 bouts; Umar defeated Alym Isabaev at Fight Nights Global 62 by TKO stoppage in the second round, Valisher Rakhmonov by second round rear-naked choke at Fight Nights Global 71, Nauruz Dzamikhov by unanimous decision at Fight Nights Global 76 and finally Shyudi Yamauchi by unanimous decision at Fight Nights Global 83. Moving over to Samara MMA Federation (now known as Eagle FC), on May 11, 2018 Umar won the FMMAS Bantamweight Championship against Fatkhidin Sobirov at Samara at the Battle on Volga 4, winning the title and the bout by unanimous decision.[4]

On August 30, 2018, Nurmagomedov fought at PFL 7 against future UFC fighter Saidyokub Kakhramonov, winning the bout by unanimous decision.[5]

Returning to Samara MMA Federation, Umar defended his title at Battle on the Volga 10 on April 14, 2019, where he defeated Brazilian Wagner Lima by unanimous decision. With his title once again on the line (with Samara MMA Federation changing its name to Gorilla Fighting Championship), Umar defeated Taras Gryckiv at GFC 14 on July 13, 2019 by rear-naked choke in the first round.[4]

Umar made his return to PFL, competing at PFL 6 on August 8, 2019, where Umar defeated Sidemar Honorio by unanimous decision.[6][7]

On November 23, 2019, in the capital of Uzbekistan, Tashkent, Umar defended his title against Argentine fighter Brian Gonzalez, defeating his opponent via rear-naked choke at the end of the first round.[4][8]
