Bang for Buck: How Khabib Nurmagomedov turned his UFC winnings into a business empire

Karim Zidan looks at the numerous ventures that former UFC champion Khabib Nurmagomedov is involved in following his retirement.

In the wake of his retirement at UFC 254, Khabib Nurmagomedov met with a group of students in Derbent, Dagestan, where he described his plans over the coming years.

“I’ve bought sheep, I tend to my farm,” Nurmagomedov reportedly said. “I have the bull calves out to feed, I have cows.”

While Nurmagomedov may have been serious about his interest in the field of agriculture, his response hardly summed up the scope of the former UFC lightweight champion’s business ventures and investment portfolio since his retirement.
