UFC Fighter Shara “Bullet” Magomedov recently opened up about the financial struggles he faced early in his career – admitting that he was “ashamed” to have restricted certain foods his wife could enjoy during tough times.
In an interview with Red Corner MMA, Magomedov shared that, despite his wife coming from a well-off family, he was forced to limit her indulgence in treats like coffee and ice cream as they worked to make ends meet:
The new generation of girls are not used to it…
I even feel a little bit ashamed telling you this.Sometimes my wife would get some coffee and ice cream. At some point, I had to restrict her from coffee.
On other occasions, I had to restrict her from ice cream.Certainly, she was not ready for that.
He went on to explain further:
She must have thought that I was [being] stingy to her.
But I explained that we could survive more days without the coffee or ice cream.And she understood me.
After going through it, she became a completely different person.
The rising Russian star will look to add a 15th win to his undefeated record when he takes on Armen Petrosyan at UFC 308 on October 26.
