Report: Zabit dealing with ‘health problems,’ UFC career in jeopardy

Early this month, it was reported that Zabit Magomedsharipov is already considering retirement. The news came after the 30-year-old Dagestan fighter was removed from the featherweight rankings. But according to sources close to the situation, Zabit is “stoned tired of fighting” and bears “no special motivation” to get back in there and compete.

Now, new reports have come out saying Zabit is dealing with some health issues. TASS.Ru’s Igor Lazorin got to speak with manager Rizvan Magomedov and posted this update on social media.

Zabit has health problems, and more specifically, with the immune system.
