Khabib Nurmagomedov put on a boxing clinic by making pre

UFC Hall of Famer Khabib Nurmagomedov showcased high-level boxing years before dropping Conor McGregor inside the Octagon.

Khabib Nurmagomedov is considered by many as one of the greatest fighters in UFC history after an undefeated 29-0 run inside the cage. He walked away from fighting after a successful lightweight title defense against Justin Gaethje at UFC 254.

Before Nurmagomedov made his UFC debut, he was a talented prospect competing in various regional promotions in Russia, including M-1 and Pro FC. Four fights before signing with the UFC, Nurmagomedov faced another talented prospect in Ashot Shaginyan, and many believed Nurmagomedov would use a wrestling-heavy approach when they fought.

Nurmagomedov shocked the masses when he took the opposite approach against Shaginyan, with a future UFC pound-for-pound king in his corner at Pro FC 28.

Khabib Nurmagomedov overwhelmed Pro FC rival with a punching barrage years before UFC debut

Nurmagomedov and Shaginyan wasted no time getting after it inside the square MMA ring, as Nurmagomedov pressed forward with a boxing-heavy gameplan. He pressured Shaginyan against the ropes and bloodied his opponent’s face just seconds into the fight.

As Shaginyan went for a desperate takedown, Nurmagomedov sprawled beautifully and continued to pressure Shaginyan with nonstop output. Despite numerous attempts to counter Nurmagomedov, Shaginyan had a hard time landing as Nurmagomedov bobbed and weaved through his advances.

With future UFC lightweight champion Islam Makhachev yelling commands from the corner, Nurmagomedov continued to overwhelm Shaginyan and put him on the edge of quitting. Just two minutes into the fight, Nurmagomedov dropped Shaginyan with a massive right hand that resulted in a delayed knockdown, forcing the referee to step in and stop the fight.

It was an impressive performance for Nurmagomedov as he showcased a well-rounded skillset inside the cage. It was a message to other lightweights not to focus solely on the future UFC Hall of Famer’s wrestling, as Nurmagomedov gave his future rivals more to think about.

Years later, Nurmagomedov would stun Conor McGregor with a huge punch in their UFC 229 clash. It was one of the few times that McGregor was dropped in his UFC career.

Khabib Nurmagomedov may be standing in the way of the UFC booking two super fights

Fast forward to 2025, and Nurmagomedov is one of the top coaches in MMA. But as he prepares Makhachev and others for their upcoming fights, he might be the biggest obstacle preventing the UFC from securing a pair of mega-fights.

As Makhachev plots a potential move to welterweight, Nurmagomedov shut down a potential clash with UFC welterweight champion Belal Muhammad, saying his ‘heart is not okay’ with the idea of Makhachev and Muhammad fighting each other. Makhachev and Muhammad are teammates and close friends who trained under the tutelage of Nurmagomedov and longtime American Kickboxing Academy coach Javier Mendez.

Muhammad returns this weekend at UFC 315 against Jack Della Maddalena and sent Makhachev a defiant message about a possible move to welterweight. Makhachev met with UFC CBO Hunter Campbell this week to discuss the lightweight champ’s next bout.

A top option for Makhachev’s next lightweight title defense is Ilia Topuria, but Nurmagomedov is rumored to be preventing the fight from coming to fruition. Topuria announced he’s set to fight at UFC 317 against a to-be-determined opponent, potentially Makhachev or former titleholder Charles Oliveira.

Five-time Olympian Jesse Smith of Coronado and former UC San Diego coach Denny Harper have been named to the USA Water Polo Hall of Fame in this year’s induction class.

Smith helped the USA men win a silver medal in the 2008 Games in Beijing during his Olympic tenure (2004-2020). He was second American to compete on five Olympic teams.

As a high school player, Smith spearheaded Coronado High School to three CIF San Diego Section championships. He returned to his alma mater to coach the Islanders boys and girls teams, starting with Division 1 title teams for boys in 2023 and the girls in 2024.

Harper launched a 42-year coaching career with the UC San Diego men in 1980. From there, he guided the Tritons women for 15 seasons (1985-1999). The men made 15 NCAA Tournament appearances under his guidance, including second place in 2000, while the women won five national championships.

Before heading to UC San Diego, Harper coached the San Diego State women’s club team. He graduated from SDSU in 1978.

Inductions are scheduled for June 13 in Brea. Also in the 2025 class are referee David Alberstein, former United States men’s national team coach Richard Azevado and three-time Olympian Melissa Seidermann.
