Usman Nurmagomedov talks having cousin Khabib in corner during Bellator 255 win
UNCASVILLE, Conn. – Another Nurmagomedov made his way into major-league MMA Friday.
Usman Nurmagomedov (12-0 MMA, 1-0 BMMA), a cousin of former UFC lightweight champion Khabib, took care of Mike Hamel (7-5 MMA, 0-2 BMMA) with a unanimous decision in their lightweight fight on the Bellator 255 main card.
And though Hamel was gritty enough to steal a round from Nurmagomedov from a pair of judges, ultimately the Russian was too much in his first fight in the U.S. It was just the second time Nurmagomedov went the distance in a pro career spanning four years.
After his win, Nurmagomedov talked to the media about having Khabib in his corner for the fight and the difference it made in his win.
Check out Nurmagomedov’s full post-fight news conference in the video above.
