We’re 3 weeks away from the One of the most anticipated UFC fights – Conor McGregor vs Khabib Nurmagomedov. As it turns out Dillon Danis wasn’t enough for Conor so he brought down another beastly jiu jitsu man to help make sure he can handle Khabib.
The man in question is Ayub Magomadov, a native of Chechnya. Student of Alexandre “Gigi” Paiva was invited to put pressure on Conor and simulate the undefeated Dagestani in MMA.
“Conor and his team were looking for someone to do a heavy MMA sparring with pressure on the ground and the catching game,” Ayub said to graciemag. “Someone who would not step back, with good drops and control of grappling positions. Conor is highly professional and very tough in all respects, he has had great fall defenses and a very fair Jiu-Jitsu. He is always willing to give his all in training, and it was a war! He gave 100% of himself in all the activities I saw and participated in. ”
“I stayed in Dublin for a few days and did a three-minute, five-minute workout. His gripping technique is very consistent, he is always learning during training. It has a very strong base and proved to be very hard on the back foot position. On top of it, on the guard pass, he’s also very versatile. He is good, complete, and I learned a lot in return, and I think he was very satisfied after training. “
I have true respect for the Vainakh soldier.
Eye to eye respect.
Always be aware that when respect is given out of fear, it is fake.
It is the cowards safest first step towards treason.
When land is on the line, there are no limits. So there must be no hesitation.
Stand strong and stay ruthless!
Forever and always 🇮🇪 🇷🇺 ⚔️
Thank you, Ayub. Proper fighting.
