Usman Nurmagomedov recently announced an ambitious goal for the Nurmagomedov family: to achieve an undefeated combined record of 100-0 collectively. Nurmagomedov successfully defended his lightweight title with a dominant unanimous decision victory over Alexander Shabliy in the main event of Bellator Championship Series 4, held at the Pechanga Arena in San Diego last weekend.

Khabib Nurmagomedov was front and center for his cousin Usman’s hard-fought victory at Bellator Champion Series last night.
The former UFC champion was ecstatic to see more MMA success come to the family, and he was very proud of his cousin Usman for defending his Bellator lightweight championship. This win marks the 18th in a row for the young Dagestani fighter, who remains undefeated just like his older cousin and mentor, Khabib Nurmagomedov.
Usman Nurmagomedov defended his title against Alexander Shabliy, who was on a nine-fight win streak before getting defeated last night via unanimous decision. Shabliy presented a lot more of a challenge than many expected. However, he lost almost every round as far as the judges were concerned, with scores of 50-45, 49-46, and 49-46 to seal his defeat.
Khabib Nurmagomedov takes to the cage and speaks on the family dynasty
“I think Usman (Nurmagomedov) is right now one of the best lightweights in the world,” Khabib Nurmagomedov said, standing in the Bellator octagon. “I was before; now it’s our brother Islam (Makhachev), and Usman is next. This is dynasty.”
“I think many, many years people gonna talk,” Nurmagomedov continued. “And they don’t even understand why (our family is so dominant in MMA). Because we work so hard, we believe in Allah, and we believe in ourselves.”
With that, the Nurmagomedov tribe would leave yet another event victorious. The dynasty is indeed in full effect, with Khabib’s lasting legacy on the UFC and his family’s continued work in the MMA world. Islam Makhachev is dominating the UFC’s lightweight division, and Usman Nurmagomedov is doing the same to Bellator’s. Shoot, even Umar Nurmagomedov is on the verge of a title shot!
What do you think about this MMA dynasty that Khabib and his father created?

Amid a response from former interim lightweight champion, Tony Ferguson earlier this week, former undisputed lightweight titleholder, Khabib Nurmagomedov has urged the Oxnard native to leave combat sports to “young fighters” — in a jibe at his eight-fight losing streak.
Nurmagomedov, a former undisputed lightweight titleholder and Hall of Fame inductee under the banner of the UFC, most recently featured back in 2021 in his retirement outing — taking on common-foe, Justin Gaethje in a title unification pairing.
Submitting the then-interim gold holder with a second round triangle choke, Khabib Nurmagomedov moved to 29-0 as a professional, before calling time on his illustrious career.
“”Lucky punch” now, was going to leave you alone, but ewe just couldn’t help it ya phat-phuhk,” Tony Ferguson posted on his official Instagram account. “What a f’kn puss-ee, coward like chicken keep hiding Khabieber 29-1. #ItsOnLikeDonkeyKongBiotch – champ -CSO- us mx #TiramisuTuesday commences until further notice, let ol’e fathead know what time it is crew.”
Khabib Nurmagomedov hits out at Tony Ferguson once more
However, hitting back at the veteran fan-favorite on his own official social media this week, Nurmagomedov urged Ferguson to leave fighting and let “young” combatants compete in his place.
“You know what’s interesting, I didn’t say anything about you, people just post whatever they want on the internet and write that it’s Khabib,” Khabib Nurmagomedov posted on his official X account. “Enjoy your life and your family, leave this sport for the young fighters.”
Most recently suffering a record-setting eighth consecutive defeat, former interim lightweight champion, Ferguson dropped a dominant opening round rear-naked choke submission defeat to fellow veteran, Michael Chiesa in Abu Dhabi earlier this summer.
