Hasbulla Magomedov ‘arrest’ updates — Dagestan icon breaks silence after being ‘arrested for driving offences’
Is Hasbulla a UFC Fighter?
In September 2022, Hasbulla announced that he had signed a five-year contract with UFC.
He went live with the update on his Instagram, which read: “The rumors are true. I’ve officially signed a contract to fight in the UFC! Details will be announced by the end of the year.
“Thanks to @ufc, @danawhite, @khabib_nurmagomedov, @sungurov_usa, @justinozuna and everyone who helped make this dream a reality.
“All my fans will soon be able to buy a Hasbulla fight set on UFC.com and hasbulla.com.”
Chief Dana White is a big fan of Hasbullah, having met him at UFC 267 in the Middle East in October 2021.
He is also aware of Hasbulla’s popularity and could use this to promote the company.
White said of Hasbulla, “So I’m going to tell you something. So the video he sent saying “Dana White I’m coming to Abu Dhabi and the UFC”. When I posted that with me on the plane and said, “I’m coming,” it was the biggest post I’ve ever posted.
“I have 6.7 million followers on Instagram, 6.4 million people watched this video. Is that fucking crazy.”
