UEFA World Champion Mixed Martial Arts (UFC) Habib Nurmmadov faced the problem of being overweight three days ahead of Saturday's world title against American Dustin Poirier in Abu Dhabi, forcing him to lose six kilograms in four exercises. He was stripped of all his clothes during the weight exercise conducted today.
Nurmohammadov, 30, was forced to strip naked and was hidden before standing on the scale to achieve the required weight, which should not exceed 70 kilograms.
Although he was happy to achieve the required weight, his face appeared pale, and looked tired of the process of severe slimming, which underwent for two days to lose six kilograms.

It is noteworthy that Nurmohammadov will receive the largest return for money in his history, where his father Abdul Manab Nurmohammadov said he would get six million dollars for his fight against Poirier.
The Russian champion Nurmohammadov won 27 battles during his professional career, without suffering any defeat.
