Mohammad Nasrat Haqparast[1] (born August 22, 1995) is a German[3] mixed martial artist (MMA) of Afghan descent who currently competes in the Lightweight division in the UFC.

Background

Haqparast was born in Germany to Afghan parents who came as refugees from Afghanistan. His family is from the province of Kandahar. He attended kickboxing classes as his parents believed he was overweight at fourteen years old.
