Umar Nurmagomedov Provides Update on Usman Nurmagomedov Joining UFC and When ‘Wild Chanco’ Will Make His Debut

Umar Nurmagomedov recently responded to two of the most often asked fan questions. The first one is when his brother, PFL champion Usman Nurmagomedov, comes to the UFC, and the second one is when Magomed Zaynukov, aka ‘Wild Chanco,’ makes his promotional debut.

Umar, who attended a presser ahead of UFC Qatar, first answered when his brother Usman would sign with the UFC. He said:

“About Usman [Nurmagomedov] he has a deal with the PFL and he needs to finish first, then he will talk [to the UFC].”

Heading to the second question about ‘Wild Chanco’, Umar added:

“About Chanko, I hope next year, he and I, we will fight on the same card, and I hope it’s gonna happen as soon as possible.
