UFC lightweight champion Khabib Nurmagomedov’s father has “recovered” from COVID-19, but is still in intensive care with kidney and heart complications, the UFC lightweight champion said.
Abdulmanap Nurmagomedov, who is also Khabib’s longtime trainer, tested positive for the coronavirus and was hospitalized and put in a coma in mid May. Khabib told Channel One Russia (H/T MMA Fighting) that his father is still hooked up to machines and cannot verbalize.
“Now father’s condition is still serious. He is in intensive care,” Khabib said. “The coronavirus is gone, but the infection has left consequences on the kidneys and on the heart.
