Despite his father falling into a coma following a positive test for COVID-19, Khabib Nurmagomedov reportedly refused to be tested for the deadly disease.
According to telegram channel Mash (h/t RT Sports), doctors offered the UFC champion COVID-19 testing after his father was infected and fell ill, but the fighter reportedly refused the test and insisted that the doctors focus their attention on his father, who remains in critical condition.
Abdulmanap Nurmagomedov, 57, was transported from his native Dagestan to a military hospital in Moscow several weeks ago after falling ill with pneumonia and flu-like symptoms, which was later confirmed to be COVID-19.
