Kayla Harrison is the only Judo Olympian from the USA to have won a Gold medal. And now she’s baring her teeth. She was quoted saying the following:
“Am I gonna beat Khabib? I mean I think I would beat him in a Judo match. For sure, 100 percent. I would beat Khabib,” she said to TMZ.
Also according to his father he wanted Khabib to be a judo gold medallist! However Nurmagomedov is a two-time Combat Sambo World Champion and has not competed in judo that we know of.
Khabib famously isn’t too crazy about women fighting having said:
