Throughout his career, Khabib has just lost 2 rounds in his entire MMA journey. His fights against the likes of arch-rival Conor McGregor, Justin Gaethje, Dustin Poirier, and many more have never taken a toll on him. Further, many of his title fights haven’t even lasted all five rounds, as Khabib got the better of his opponents in the first four.

Khabib stands out as a true great in the combat world. His dominance in the cage was one of a kind. In his last fight against Gaethje in 2020, Khabib chose to retire from his illustrious career after his father Abdulmanap Nurmagomedov‘s death.
