Khabib Nurmagomedov, a former middleweight champion in the UFC (Ultimate Fighting Championship) mixed martial arts event, recently said that having ring girls in MMA matches is almost useless.
In his recent statement during an MMA match in Dagestan, Khabib said that this roundboard girl has almost no function. Khabib said that he didn’t want to hurt anyone through his statement.
“The audience can find out a round from the monitor screen or other devices”
Khabib understands that the existence of this ring girl is a tradition in the world of boxing and MMA. However, Khabib further stated that ring girls are actually the most useless people in the MMA world. “The audience can find out a round from the monitor screen or other devices” continued Khabib. Khabib further said that he and his late father, Abdulmanap Nurmagomedov had felt very uncomfortable with the presence of this roundboard girl.
Khabib’s words raise pros and cons in the MMA world. Many parties oppose Khabib’s statement and are considered not to appreciate the existence of ring girls, which has become a tradition in the world of boxing and MMA. But Khabib further said he would not use the services of this ring girl at every event he held.
As is well known, since retiring from the Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC), Khabib Nurmagomedov decided to jump in as a promoter in the MMA event that has made his name. Khabib has bought an MMA event in Russia called the Gorilla Fighting Championship or GFC. Khabib bought this GFC and changed the name of the event to Eagle Fighting Championship. Eagle was the nickname for Khabib when he was still fighting as a fighter in MMA.
In this EFC event, Khabib has really decided not to use the services of a ring girl.
