Team Khabib and the hunters from the Caukasus Western MMA region have been dominating for almost ten years.
Khabib Nurmagomedov confirmed his estate as one of the largest UFC hunters ever. 'The Eagle' pulled himself undefeated in 2020 with a record of 29-0 and continues to coach his colleagues as a quantity, including his core Proteges Islam Makhachev and Usman Nurmagomedov.
Whether it is work ethics, stylistic matchups or 'different fans and experts are built', thinking about what Team Khabib makes so elite, and the last to offer their opinion is the legendary UFC commentator and Podcaster Joe Rogan.

Joe Rogan credit 'Religious Framework' to the success of Team Khabib
On his podcast, Rogan mentioned the religious dedication of Team Khabib as “one of the keys” for their success.
“I think it helps them to be successful for many people,” said Rogan. “I think having a religious framework helps you to become successful. I think it is one of the keys to these Dagestan hunters in the UFC.
“They are so religious and devout that they are so disciplined that they do not deviate from the path at all. That's why they just keep winning. “
The brutal training regiments of Team Khabib
Team Khabib teammate Ibragim Ibragimov has spoken with Bloody Elbow detailed the brutal training methods of Usmagomedov. To get the most out of their training, they do a training in shark tank style similar to Alexander Volkanovski and Israel Adesanya at City Kickboxing in New Zealand.
'[…] These are the difficult times. When he [Usman] Routs the class, “said Ibragimov. “All the guys who prepare for the fighting go on the wall. Then everyone gets five people in a group and all five people will exchange.
“One moment it is a man, the next moment that someone is fresh, another minute fresh guy, they try to get you all on the wall, then you get a minute of rest after five minutes and those five people, all fresh, You 'fall on. “
Just like father as son, Nurmagomedov uses hardcore training methods of his deceased father, Abdulmanap Nurmagomedov. This includes mandatory hairstyles and telephones that are locked up in lockers such as athletes want to train under their roof. This is to combat distractions.
Fighters get a quick whip to the back when they violate the code.
