Umar Nurmagomedov: “I need a fight as soon as possible, even if not for the title”
Russian MMA fighter Umar Nurmagomedov said that he wants to quickly have a new fight in the UFC and does not insist on a championship fight right now.
On Saturday, Nurmagomedov defeated Brazilian Deiveson Figueiredo by decision on the preliminary card of the UFC 324 tournament in Las Vegas. 30-year-old Nurmagomedov has 20 wins and one defeat in MMA fights. He ranks second in the UFC bantamweight division rankings; Russian Petr Yan holds the championship title.
“I will ask for a new fight so that I can fight again as soon as possible.” I want to be active and fight. It doesn’t matter if it’s a title fight. I don’t care who wins the Yadong-O’Malley fight. I’ll fight anyone. I really don’t care. “I’m going to take my chances and take the title,” MMA Junkie quotes Nurmagomedov.
