Khabib Nurmagomedov needs nothing however one of the best for Arman Tsarukyan.
That man being none aside from rising light-weight star Renato Moicano.
Whereas backstage at Friday’s ceremonial weigh-ins in Inglewood, Makhachev’s coach and mentor, Khabib Nurmagomedov, provided his tackle the sudden shake-up and shared some phrases of encouragement to Tsarukyan, recalling the same incident he himself endured throughout his personal race to the light-weight title.

“Honestly, I knew this yesterday, at 1 A.M. before I sleep. Honestly, this can happen with anybody. If you guys remember [in] 2017, March, it happened with me too. Then after that, I go to hospital, make surgery, come back and I tell UFC, ‘It was my mistake, give me other best guy. I’m going to beat this guy and deserve my title shot.’ It was the same thing with me. I just want to wish him all the best. He’s young. He’s tough. He can come back. He [has] to survive this situation and come back,” (h/t Sportskeeda).
Khabib Refuses to underestimate ‘money’ moicano
Unsurprisingly, Makhachev is an enormous -1100 favourite to return out on high in opposition to Moicano contained in the Intuit Dome. Regardless of these huge odds, ‘The Eagle’ is aware of that counting out somebody as harmful and skilled as ‘Money’ could be an enormous mistake.
“Now, new main event. I think with Moicano, he has very big experience in the UFC… 10, 11 years in UFC. He [has four-fight] win streak, and he’s on his prime. It’s a good fight. Of course, it’s not like Arman and Islam, but it’s still very competitive fight, and we [are] not going to underestimate this guy.”
Moicano goes into his first UFC title alternative driving a four-fight win streak and a winner in six of his final seven, together with Ws in opposition to notable names like Drew Dober, Jalin Turner, and Benoit Saint-Denis.
