Khabib Nurmagomedov and Islam Makhachev’s coach reveals that Makhachev is the only fighter who wins rounds against Nurmagomedov during their training sessions

In an interview with Submission Radio, Nurmagomedov’s coach, Javier Mendez, said Islam Makhachev is the only fighter to have ever won rounds against ‘The Eagle’ during training sessions. Emphasizing Makhachev’s exceptional skills, Mendez said:

“In all of history since 2012 since Khabib has been sparring with me, in front of my eyes, there has been nobody that has taken a round from him. No one has ever won a sparring session against him, not a sparring session ever, except one man, Islam. He is the only one that has won rounds from Khabib. Never won a session, but he has won rounds. And I have never seen that.”
