WATCH! Said Nurmagomedov execute a memorable guillotine choke UFC 270

Said Nurmagomedov is nowhere close to being related to Khabib Nurmagomedov but his performance at UFC 270 against Cody Stamann may make you confused about the same. The quickest win in his career and one of the fastest in the bantamweight history, 15-2 Said choked the very tough Stamann in under a minute of the opening round of the fight via guillotine choke.

Said is now 4-1 in the UFC with 3 wins via finishes. The Akhmat Fight Team protege coming out of Makhachkala, Russia is seemingly the biggest unranked promising bantamweight as of now in the world’s biggest MMA promotion. The main card is taking place today in Anaheim, California which is headlined by a title unification match between undisputed champion Francis Ngannou and interim champion Ciryl Gane. For the record, both the fighters are former teammates as well.
