This does not bode well for Khabib with less than a day left for the Conor fight. It will rattle him even further with Magomedov already in jail.

Several MMA fighters — some of whom are employed as security guards by oligarch Ziyavudin Magomedov’s Summa Group holdings company — have been arrested on charges of attempted murder.
The detained fighters are suspected of attempting to murder Shamil Kuramagomedov, a bronze medalist in the 2017 Russian Combat Sambo Championship. Eight suspects attacked Kuramagomedov in June 2017 and beat him within an inch of his life. The fighter was hospitalized with a concussion, a traumatic brain injury, and a broken nose but opted not to report his assault to the police.
Kuramagomedov and the suspects all trained at the same gym, which was also owned by Summa Group. One of the defendants in the case is Felix Urujev, a “sports coach and judge” who was charged with the “intentional infliction of grievous bodily harm.”
While the aforementioned gym was not named, it could potentially be a reference to the Eagles MMA fight club, which Ziyavudin Magomedov founded in 2016. The club is home to several notable Dagestani fighters, including UFC lightweight champion Khabib Nurmagomedov, who has also served as the club’s president since its inception. It should also be noted that another Eagles MMA fighter, Sergey Pavlovich, named defendant Felix Urujev as one of his coaches in a 2016 interview.
