Abdulmanap Nurmagomedov Still In Critical Condition

UFC lightweight champion Khabib Nurmagomedov reportedly refused to take a test for COVID-19 following his father’s recent infection.

The senior Nurmagomedov, Abdulamanap, is currently in a medically-induced coma and is unable to breathe without medical support after testing positive for COVID-19. It is the second time he is in a coma after previously falling ill last month with pneumonia and flu-like symptoms.

He later suffered a stroke and was placed in a medically-induced coma. He awoke eventually, but was unable to move or speak before his condition worsened again. There has been no further updates at the time of writing.

Nurmagomedov has been by his side in Moscow, but according to Telegram channel Mash (via RT), refused to take his own test for COVID-19. Instead, he told doctors to direct their full attention to his father.

“The Eagle” confirmed his father was in critical condition in a social media post last month.

“A lot has been written about my father on the Internet,” Nurmagomedov said. “He’s in the hospital now, he’s in a very serious condition. He had heart complications stemming from the virus. This virus has very seriously affected his heart, since he had a heart operation a year ago.

“He’s had surgery again. He’s in a difficult situation, very difficult. We ask Allah to return him to us. Thank you very much to everyone who writes, who sends their support. May Allah help us all.”

Abdulmanap Nurmagomedov, the father of UFC lightweight champion Khabib Nurmagomedov has been put in a medically induced coma according to MMA manager Ali Abdelaziz. Last week it was reported Abdulmanap who has undergone heart surgery after complications with the coronavirus had awoken from a coma – now it appears that is not the case.

Speaking to ESPN, Abdelaziz appeared to rubbish those claims by saying Nurmagomedov Sr is still in a coma.

“I can confirm Khabib’s father is in a medically induced coma,” Abdelaziz said. “Khabib has been in contact with [Russian president] Vladimir Putin over the last several days, and he has promised Khabib’s father will receive the best medical treatment available.”

“Khabib’s No. 1 message to people around the world right now is to stay at home, to prevent the spread of coronavirus.”

Speaking out on social media last week, Khabib said that his father is currently in a critical condition and explained how his family had been deeply impacted by the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, he said.

“A lot has been written about my father on the Internet.  He’s in the hospital now, he’s in a very serious condition. He had heart complications stemming from the virus. This virus has very seriously affected his heart, since he had a heart operation a year ago. He’s had surgery again. He’s in a difficult situation, very difficult. We ask Allah to return him to us. Thank you very much to everyone who writes, who sends their support. May Allah help us all.”

The lightweight king ended his message by stressing the importance of taking this virus seriously and working together tol help overcome it, Nurmagomedov said.

“Personally, I’ve had more than 20 relatives – I don’t mean people I know, I mean close relatives – who have been in intensive care… Many people I know have died, the parents of people close to me.”  

This virus has affected everyone. This virus doesn’t ask what your surname or name is, this virus doesn’t ask where you work, if you are rich or poor. Everyone has got ill. We can only overcome this together.” (Translated by RT)

Khabib Nurmagomedov confirmed reports that his father remains in critical condition following a heart surgery due to COVID-19.

Although Abdulmanap awoke from a medically-induced coma last week, it was reported that he was still in serious condition. As per the most recent Russian reports, he is still unable to talk or move.

Nurmagomedov confirmed the situation regarding his father, adding that more than 20 people from his family have also suffered as a result of COVID-19. He proceeded to advise everyone to follow public health guidelines — even those observing the Muslim holiday of Ramadan.

“In my personal case, I’ve had more than 20 people sick from my family,” Nurmagomedov said on Instagram (translated by ESPN). “More than 20 people were lying in the ICUs. And many of them are no longer among us. Many acquaintances have died, many parents of my relatives. Everybody is having a hard time dealing with it.

“There is a lot written on the internet about my father. My father, right now, is located in a hospital. He is in critical condition as a result of this virus. It impacted his heart, because last year he had a surgery there and right now, they did another surgery. He is in a very difficult situation, very difficult. We are asking Allah that he returns him to us.

“… Our learned Islamic scholars are telling us, ‘Stay home and do the holiday prayer. Don’t have guests. Don’t go yourselves as guests.’ It is a very difficult situation.”

Will Nurmagomedov Fight Soon?

Nurmagomedov is expected to defend his lightweight title against interim champion Justin Gaethje later this year with UFC president Dana White targeting a September date for the pair.

However, that all hinges on the current situation with Nurmagomedov and his father, who he notably idolizes. Hopefully, the senior Nurmagomedov has a quick and speedy recovery.

As per Nurmagomedov family friend Ramazan Rabadanov, the 57-year-old is yet to speak following the procedure.
