It is in all the newsletters that Hasbulla Magomedov signed with the UFC. While your initial thought would be that they maybe created a weight class for him, you are wrong, and right at the same time.
The UFC fans joke that Hasbulla Magomedov is already 1-0 in the octagon as he ‘beat up’ his friend before the UFC 280 event in Abu Dhabi.
Hasbulla Magomedov Has A 1-0 MMA Record After UFC 280
Hasbulla Magomedov entered the octagon prior to the UFC 280 event. He took part in a ‘staged’ fight with one of his friends. The video footage of the event shows Hasbulla delivering punches and knees to the downed opponent, as he covers his head with his hands.
After a series of unreturned punches, the social media star that suffers from growth hormone deficiency left his ‘opponent’ and faced the crowd, raising his hands in a sign of triumph over his downed friend.
The popularity of the video footage of Hasbulla Magomedov inside the octagon skyrocketed on all social media platforms. UFC fans started reacting to it beautifully.
“The new champ!”, “The undisputed baby-weight champ!”, “Mini Khabib has some skills”, are just some of the comments that the UFC fans are leaving below the video.
“I’ll bet on Hasbulla my whole paycheck” – one Twitter user joked. “Absolutely merciless!” – another one added.
The social media star announced his signing with the UFC on his Instagram. However, many fans were doubting the legitimacy of the deal that Hasbulla signed with the UFC.
“UFC rumors are true I have officially signed the contract details will come later this year. Thanks to UFC and Dana White for the opportunity, I will try to justify your trust… The rumors are true. Finally, I have officially signed a deal. I’ll fight in the UFC!” – Hasbulla wrote in the description of a photo of him holding a UFC t-shirt with his name on it.
President Dana White also reported that the rumors are true. In a recent podcast episode of ‘My Mom’s Basement with Robbie Fox’, the UFC president confirmed the unbelievable.
“I didn’t know this was coming, but yes we did sign Hasbulla. And we will see what he’s going to end up doing, whether he fights or not.” – Dana White said.
After his UFC ‘debut’, Hasbulla sat in the first rows, to watch his long-time friend, Islam Makhachev fight. The Dagestani fighter scored an unbelievable second-round win against Oliveira and left the UFC audience speechless.
What do you think? Would Dana White be able to find an opponent for Hasbulla? Is he planning to make this a real thing?
