UFC legend Khabib Nurmagomedov's manager has said that his popularity will be long-lasting due to his honestly, as opposed to "fake" Jake Paul.
Ali Abdelaziz, the head of Dominance MMA and Nurmagomedov's long-time business partner, believes that the key to his client's success is his earnest nature. In the process of praising his charge, Abdelaziz took a little shot at Paul, who has been angling for a bout with his other top fighter Kamaru Usman.
He argues that Paul is one of the "fake" few who push fights with dishonest hype campaigns, as opposed to letting their skills do the talking for them like Nurmagomedov did during his career. Abdelaziz and Paul don't share the best relationship, which likely contributed to his harsh take on the YouTuber.
