Abubakar Nurmagomedov will make his promotional debut for WSOF on August 1st.
Abubakar Nurmagomedov, the younger brother of UFC lightweight Khabib Nurmgomoedov, is scheduled to make his World Series of Fighting debut on August 1st against Jorge Moreno.
Ranked the third best welterweight prospect in the BloodyElbow Scouting Report, Abubakar compiled a 8-0 record to begin his career, and appeared to be on a similar path as his brother was before him on the Russian regional scene. He was then matched up against fellow prospect Magomed Mustafaev and suffered his first career loss following a doctor stoppage after a competitive opening round of action.
