Khabib Nurnagomedov has named Shakban Alkhasov, Amru Magomedov and Renat Khavalov as three future UFC champions from his stable.
Nurmagomedov is considered one of the most talented fighters to have ever graced the promotion retiring as an undefeated world champion back in 2020 after a final victory over Justin Gaethje. However after taking a step back from competing, Nurmagomedov is eyeing a dual career as a promoter and coach having created promotion Eagles FC where he is on the lookout for some of MMA's leading talent.
This weekend the Russian will face the biggest test of his mentoring career when protege Islam Makhachev fights for the vacant 155lb title at UFC 280 against Charles Oliveira in Abu Dhabi. And ahead of his friend's difficult test against the Brazilian, Nurmagmedov has claimed there is plenty more prospects emerging through the MMA talent factory.
