Islam Makhachev looks to follow in the footsteps of his good friend Khabib Nurmagomedov

Khabib Nurmagomedov is the longest-reigning lightweight titleholder in UFC history at 1077 days. He is tied with B.J. Penn, Frankie Edgar and Benson Henderson for the most successful defenses in the division as well.

Nurmagomedov now trains and corners a lot of Dagestani fighters from the AKA gym in San Jose, California. One among them is the highly-talented Islam Makhachev, who is considered to be 'The Eagle's' toughest sparring partner to date.

According to 'The Eagle', his father Abdulmanap Nurmagomedov's favorite student was Makhachev. Hence, Khabib Nurmagomedov wants to see his good friend claim gold at the world's biggest MMA promotion.

"Islam was my father's favorite student. My dad always kept saying that he is a future champion. That is why I have to be here, and that's why I have to finish what my father began," claimed Khabib Nurmagomedov.

See what Khabib Nurmagomedov said about Islam Makhachev in a recent edition of the UFC Destined show below:

Makhachev is currently ranked No.4 in the UFC lightweight division. He looks set to be named the next title challenger. The Russian will most likely face the winner of the UFC 274 bout between Charles Oliveira and Justin Gaethje.
