UFC Hall of Famer Khabib Nurmagomedov is considered the GOAT of the lightweight division in the UFC. Recently, one of his fighting videos went viral, in which he gave a lying armbar submission to his opponent. Everyone has known how difficult it is to beat Khabib since his childhood.
Having maintained an undefeated streak throughout his whole fighting career, Khabib Numagomedov has shown that there are fighters who can remain undefeated. Khabib’s many unseen clips fans have seen on Instagram, Twitter, and YouTube. But this time, the video is showing that there is a possibility to get the quickest armbar if you have skills. As people have seen, Demetrious Johnson gave an armbar to Ray Borg.
Here the difference is for Mighty Mouse’s opponent to go down and pick up the armbar. But in Khabib’s latest video, he shows something more extraordinary than a mighty mouse. The Dagestan fighter, even after retirement, had 34.8 million followers for a reason. One of the most famous figures in the MMA community gave the most formidable challenge and secured a well-deserved victory over many fighters.
Khabib started his career in MMA at a very young age. He used to fight against bears, and there was footage of him on the internet where, as a small child, he was not afraid of wrestling with the dangerous animal.

Before joining the UFC, Khabib had an impressive undefeated record of 16-0 in other promotions. Khabib’s father, Adbulmanap Nurmagomedov, taught him how to fight very early. He helped him train in Judo and Sambo. At the start of his career, in 2008, Khabib became the champion of the Atrium Cup.
Fans have seen his many fights where he shocked the world when he defeated their favorites and made them his fans. But from the hidden vault, a video went viral where he can be seen in a tournament fight giving a flying armbar to the opponent, named Islam Mamedov.
Though the fighter is still unknown to the audience, Khabib Nurmagomedov didn’t reveal it yet. Is he Islam Mamedov, who competes in Bellator MMA, or is he someone else? But fans are surprised to see that Khabib was more athletic at his young age. They didn’t expect him to do something like this to an opponent.
