“There is a high probability that my next fight will take place in Russia,” Nurmagomedov wrote in his Instagram.

On the night of September 7-8, at the UFC 242 tournament in Abu Dhabi, Nurmagomedov defeated American Dustin Porye by strangulation in the third round and defended his UFC lightweight champion title for the second time in his career.

In total, the Russian athlete has 28 victories and not a single defeat in the MMA.

Earlier, former UFC champion Tyrone Woodley told Tony Ferguson a way to defeat Nurmagomedov.
