Renato Moicano knew Arman Tsarukyan will pull out and trained for Islam Makhachev #UFC311
In 2024: "Brazilian UFC lightweight Renato Moicano has announced his willingness to back up his division's title fight between Islam Makhachev and Arman Tsarukyan, which will take place on January 18 at UFC 311 in Los Angeles, USA. The Brazilian is currently scheduled to fight Beneil Dariush in this card."
"I know the keys to Makhachev, I know how he will act during the fight. My victory over Makhachev is only a matter of time. I know that everyone around me doesn't believe in me, but I don't give a shit. On January 19 my opponent will not be Dariush - I will fight for the belt, because Tsarukyan will pull out. We're in the same card for a reason and I'm ready!" - Moicano stated on the Show Me The Money YouTube channel."
Umar Nurmagomedov about fighting Merab Dvalishvili:
— To be honest, I can fight Merab in any position. On the ground, standing, or in the clinch. Wherever he wants, wherever he suggests. I won't let him wrestle, he's not technically equipped in his stand-up. He is a person who has physical coordination, he's well prepared. He has a good cardio and he pushes forward. So far it helps him, and he wins, but for myself I do not see any threat in him.
— Can we already say that his pressure is as effective and merciless as Khabib's?
— No. How can we say that? Khabib dominated! He [Dvalishvili] lost rounds! How can we compare them? Who knocked Khabib down? Who controlled his back? Who did he lose to? No, he doesn't have the same pressure and defense.
🔥Why is the Usman vs. Shabliy fight so important for Khabib? (Part 1)
In Russia, Alexander Shabliy is considered the favorite of this fight.
🔷 Eduard Vartanyan: "An interesting confrontation. I think that Shabliy is better in striking and his attacks will be more effective. I am interested in this fight. I think that Shabliy is the favorite"
🔷 Svyatoslav Shabanov: Shabliy is the favorite. There's no chance for Usman at all!
🔷Gadzhi Rabadanov (PFL fighter, Islam and Usman’s teammate) assures that Shabliy is a much better fighter than Arman Tsarukyan: “Arman is a good athlete. A very good one. He is an elite lightweight. But I think that Shabliy is a much more interesting lightweight than Arman. Shabliy is much more technical, much smarter mentally. As a fighter, as a lightweight... I think that he is way better than Arman.”
Reporter: Shabliy and Tsarukyan recently trained together, helped each other.
Gadzhi Rabadanov: He probably made Arman run from him in the cage. I have nothing against Arman. But I think that Shabliy is much better than Arman.
There are a huge number of martial arts schools in Dagestan: Nurmagomedov MMA School (Khabib, Islam, Umar), 5 Directions of the World (Zabit, Muslim Salikhov, Bozigit Ataev), Goretz (Rashid Magomedov, Magomed Ankalaev, Islam Omarov), Scorpion (Shakhbulat Shamhalaev, Shara Bullet), Champion (Khabilov, Gafurov, Ikram Aliskerov) and many others. For many years, these schools competed with each other, finding out which school is the best. Goretz has the largest number of victories in Dagestan MMA competitions. The 5 Directions of the World School, led by Gusein and Olga (probably the most famous female coach in Dagestan), has trained Olympic champions and Paralympic medalists, World Champions. The most famous Dagestani school in the world of combat sports is Nurmagomedov MMA.
But don't forget about the Moscow and Chechen MMA teams. Fight club Akhmat (former Berkut) has many top fighters and coaches (ACA promotion arguably has the highest talent level outside the UFC). The schools of Alexander Shlemenko, Fedor Emelianenko, Fight Nights Academy, Sambo 70, and the Lion's Heart team (represented by Eduard Vartanyan and Arman Tsarukyan) are very popular. The Peresvet Academy of Mixed Martial Arts left its legacy in MMA as well.
The Peresvet Academy, named after the hero of the Battle of Kulikovo, Alexander Peresvet, officially opened in Rostov-on-Don on November 13, 2008. By 2012, the Peresvet sports club had trained 9 world champions, 3 European champions, 45 winners of the Southern Federal District and Russian championships, and about 120 finalists in regional competitions. One of the team's representatives, Alexander Shabliy, is the regional champion in combat sambo, a medalist of the Southern Federal District, the Russian championship in Thai boxing, and a multiple winner of MMA tournaments in the ProFC international league. And, of course, the main contender for the title of Bellator Lightweight Champion.
🔥 Rivalry of teams
The confrontation between the Nurmagomedov School and Peresvet was exclusively in the sporting sense. There were never any personal attacks. These teams met many times at various competitions in Russia and even on the world stage.
The rivalry began in 2009, when Ibragim Tibilov from Team Peresvet defeated Eldar Eldarov (a representative of the Nurmagomedov School) by submission. It was the Russian Sambo Championship. Then, Tibilov fought Khabib Nurmagomedov. It was a tough fight. Khabib had never taken so many punches in one fight. Moreover, Tibilov gave Khabib a heel hook injury. From Khabib’s autobiography:
“For me, this was the 1st big tournament in combat sambo. It was a tough journey. A fighter from our team, Eldar Eldarov, advanced through the tournament bracket too.
Even before the tournament, I assumed that Ibragim Tibilov would be my main opponent. He was already an experienced fighter, capable of beating up anyone. My father and I watched him, and it was clear that he was one of the top guys in my weight class.
In the semi-finals, Eldarov and Tibilov met. Eldar lost in that fight. Tibilov submitted Eldar with a painful heel hook. Tibilov and I were in the finals. It was a tough fight. We fought in the stand-up, fought on the ground.
At one point, I carelessly gave him my leg, and he started twisting my foot. I felt the smallest bones in my leg being compressed. This is crazy pain.
However, despite the rather critical situation, I never for a second had the thought of giving up. I absolutely confidently saw myself at the World Championships. I won the fight. The first huge tournament for an amateur athlete. How happy and satisfied my Father was!
I have great respect for Ibragim. He is a true athlete, forcing him to give up an inch of the mat was a great achievement for anyone.” - KhabibTime
Later, Ibragim Tibilov became the ProFC champion. Neither Alexander Shabliy nor Zabit Magomedsharipov nor Khabib Nurmagomedov managed to do this for various reasons. All of them fought in the ProFC. Zabit lost his fight (his only loss in MMA), Khabib left ProFC (and got in trouble for it) because of his desire to debut in the UFC as soon as possible. In general, it is funny that the fighters whom Khabib defeated became champions in different promotions (UFC, ProFC, M-1 Global, ACA) before him. Although Khabib was in the hospital ward after the operation, he most likely wasn't laughing watching Rafael dos Anjos and Ibragim Tibilov become champions.
🔥 World Sambo Championship
Later, Khabib and Ibragim met again and had a rematch, but at the World Championship. Khabib and his father were actively preparing for this fight, and this time it was more one-sided. Khabib defeated Ibragim and became the Word Champion.
From Ibragim's interview:
“The most memorable fight was at the first Russian Combat Sambo Championship and subsequently the World Combat Sambo Championship, where in both championships the final fights were with Khabib Nurmagomedov. In the fight with Ibragim Chuzhigaev, I snatched victory in a tough battle.”
🔷 Ibragim Tibilov is a master of sports in freestyle wrestling and a master of sports of international class in combat sambo, World champion in combat sambo, Champion of Eurasia and the world in FSF MMA full-contact hand-to-hand combat, Champion of Europe and Intercontinental Champion in MMA, Former ProFC champion.
🔥 ProFC Cup In 2011, Team Nurmagomedov faced Team Peresvet at the International Team Tournament in Mixed Martial Arts. ProFC at that time was one of the leading leagues in Russia, almost all eastern European MMA fighters fought there, including Khabib, Islam, Shabliy, Ibragim Tibilov, Adlan Amagov, Zabit, Mikhail Malyutin, etc.
The ProFC Tournament included teams of Alex Emelianenko (Adlan Amagov, Mikhail Malyutin), Lion’s Heart, Peresvet, Berkut (Beslan Isaev, Abdul-Aziz Abdulvakhabov, Duraev) and many others.
🔷 Islam fought with Vladimir Egoyan (representative of the Lion’s Heart team, which includes Arman Tsarukyan) and won. But Egoyan put Islam in a difficult position twice, when he choked him in the third round and when he put Islam in a guillotine at the end of the fight, while kneeing him in the head. It was a nerve-wracking but interesting fight which the spectators really liked.
Comments on the tournament, Makhachev vs. Egoyan (2011):
💥“It is obvious that Makhachev has good technique, but lacks physical fitness. On the other hand, if he is 19, then that is quite fixable.”
💥“The most interesting fight of the tournament! But Makhachev needs to gain strength, of course. He looks frail. But he was more active.”
💥“He was 1 mm away from being knocked out twice, giving his head like he's in training.”
🔷 In the final, Khabib met with the representative of the Peresvet team, Kadzhik Abadzhyan. Right before the fight, Khabib shocked his fans with his new nickname “Bad Boy”. Khabib himself laughed about it, although the whole team was tense. The thing is that Khabib’s arm, which he injured in the fight with Agafonov, was not healing. He fought at the Sambo Championship with a non-working arm. And although the pin was already removed before the fight with Kadzhik, the arm was not healing.
Despite the team's worries and injury, Khabib quickly defeated the Peresvet representative. The Rostovites were wary: the Сup was clearly slipping out of their hands.
Comments on the tournament, Khabib vs. Kadzhik (2011):
💥“Khabib’s opponent is massive! But it seems like he has nothing for him. Although he threw a good punch.”
💥“A textbook triangle choke.”
💥“Kadzhik is one of the best sambists in Rostov. I think the guy is talented enough, hardworking and persistent...The only problem is the level of Combat Sambo and MMA that IS in our city. This level does not give him ANY prospects for growth...(who should he learn from???? Oleg Ugryumov is a wonderful person! He "carries" half of Rostov's sambists on his back...but QUANTITY destroys QUALITY). If he is going to achieve SOMETHING in MMA...he needs to "break away" from Rostov, think about more serious coaches and gyms...or he will "sour" with us... With great regret, I have to admit - Rostov is not the most advanced city in terms of combat sambo development… again, in my opinion, our sambo school is far behind the leading Russian ones...”
👉🏻 Contrary to the opinion of the commentator, in the following years, many good fighters came out of Rostov and team Peresvet. One of them was Alexander Shabliy.
Arman Tsarukyan said that his fight against Islam Makhachev could take place in December in the United States.
"The fight was supposed to take place in October, but now it has been postponed. There are talks about December. They could put us in New York and Las Vegas. These are two places where our fight with Islam could take place,"
- The number one UFC lightweight contender Arman Tsarukyan says.
🔥Khabib Nurmagomedov reacted to the news that he paid off all his debts to the Federal Tax Service. Former UFC champion posted an audio quote from an unknown author, which explains why he did not give any comments on this matter.
Khabib reacted to this story and its ending: “Sometimes, a locomotive rushes to the very end - that's how it will be with me. Everything will be until the very end. Or maybe death will stop me, or something else, but people's rumors, intrigues, gossip behind my back - I don't care about all this. I will never stand on the same level with a person who is nothing but a yapper behind your back. If they understand me, that's good. And if they don't understand me, I'm not going to explain anything to them. Wealth is not money. Because there are a lot of s*** who have money, but they are nothing"
Earlier, rumors appeared on the Internet that the undefeated fighter owed the Federal Tax Service more than 300 million rubles. According to the same source [Mash], Khabib Nurmagomedov has fully paid off his debts to tax authorities.
🔥 Former UFC champion has paid off the entire debt, which amounted to 302 million rubles.
People noted that: ⚡ Khabib Nurmagomedov was not on the list of debtors on the Russian Federal Tax Service website. ⚡ Earlier, EFC president Shamil Zavurov denied information that Eagle FC's accounts were blocked:
"They wrote that accounts were blocked - there is nothing like that, everything is fine. We have no problems. Now competent people are figuring out what is going on, where it all started, and Khabib is moving around calmly, he came home, he left - there were no problems. It's just that everyone has picked it up now, but I think everything will be cleared up soon". - Zavurov said while talking to journalists at the UAE Warriors tournament.
⚡ Khabib Nurmagomedov just opened his sports base in Dagestan "for fighters from all over the world". UFC Hall of Famer spent more than 1 billion rubles on the base.
At the moment, Khabib Nurmagomedov is heading the training camp of his second cousin, who will defend his Bellator lightweight title against fellow countryman Alexander Shabliy on September 7 in San Diego.
