American Kickboxing Academy head coach Javier Mendez says Khabib Nurmagomedov is still heavily involved in his teammates’ training camps.
In January, it was hinted that Nurmagomedov would be stepping away from coaching to spend more time with his family. Alongside Mendez, “The Eagle” was named MMA Junkie’s 2022 Coach of the Year after his team went 19-2 – including Islam Makhachev’s UFC title win and Usman Nurmagomedov’s Bellator title win.
