Fight -fans are constant in the hope of seeing an incredibly exciting competition in the Octagon in one day.
Zabit Magomedsharipov yielded a number of incredible highlights during his time in the UFC that has not fought since November 2019.
With six consecutive victories in the featherweight division, the dynamic Russian was certainly in the mix, but now at the age of 34, we don't know how great he could really have been.
Rumors that Magomedsharipov makes a return, tend to occasionally circulate with clips from him who apply work to the gym, always play a few heads.
In response to the latest video from the former competition, an increasing prospect that was an 'Future Star' raised his hand to welcome Magomedsharipov to the UFC.

Kevin Vallejos offers to welcome Zabit Magomedsharipov to the Octagon
At a certain moment, Zabit Magomedsharipov was one of the most discussed about rising contenders on 145 pounds before he started to gather a win over Jeremy Stephens and Calvin Kattar.
A lot has changed since the Russian came up on the featherweight ladder with many contenders and prospects that come and go.
One of the newest additions to the division that immediately emerged as one of the most exciting prospects on the Roster is the 23-year-old Kevin Vallejos.
The Argentinian suffered his only loss of Jean Silva in the Contender Series of Dana White in 2023 before he returned to the show the following year.
After obtaining his contract in a devastating way, Vallejos made his octagonal debut last month, where he put Seung Woo Choi in the opening round at UFC Vegas 104 to announce his arrival.
While Magomedsharipov probably would go directly against the top featherweights in the division in the event that he made his return, Vallejos was happy to shoot his shot after he had dropped his UFC career with his 11th victory of Knockout.

Zabit Magomedsharipov has previously stated that he has already made a decision
Talk about Zabit Magomedsharipov who returns to the Octagon is not something new for Vecht fans who had been an active hunter since he was still an active hunter.
The former candidate for featherweight had an incredibly unique style with creative striking and submissions, making him a real Enigma to look at.
Unfortunately it seems that the UFC has tried to do everything they can to seduce Magomedsharipov from an early retirement.
He previously made it clear the Red Corner MMA that there is nothing that could put the promotion on the table to make him change his mind.
“No, it is not (about the money), they have promised me a lot of things, but that is not the point, I have just made a decision, I don't want to prove anything. Come back, go through training camps, I don't feel like returning and it's not about money, whatever they offer me, I don't think I'll come back ever.”
