Khabib Nurmagomedov was injured one day before he would have flown to America to finish his training camp

Everyone who tuned in Thursday morning (Oct. 29, 2015) and learned that UFC lightweight Khabib Nurmagomedov had gone and injured himself again probably did what I did: you raised your head to the sky and began a slow and dramatic Darth Vader scream, "Nooooooooooooooo."

MMAFighting.com's Ariel Helwani first broke the story, that Khabib had sustained a rib injury while training in Dagestan, Russia.

Yesterday, his dad and coach, Abdulmanap Nurmagomedov, posted his disappointment on Facebook (via Bloody Elbow and translated by Artem Safarov):

"This injury is a very unpleasant situation," said the renowned Dagestani coach.
