Injured UFC lightweight Khabib Nurmagomedov contemplates the reasons behind his repeated injuries.
Khabib Nurmagomedov, once considered the top contender for the UFC's lightweight division, has been forced to spend the majority of the last two years on the sidelines recovering from multiple injuries.
Following his unanimous decision victory against current UFC lightweight champ Rafael dos Anjos, Khabib completed an extended spell on the sidelines during 2014 and was scheduled to return against Donald Cerrone in a No. 1 contender bout. However, he injured his knee while training at AKA - his second ACL injury in the span of a year.
