Now, lightweight #1 contender Khabib Nurmagomedov has taken to Twitter in an attempt to claim a lightweight title shot against the newly crowned champ.

Nurmagomedov is still undefeated in his professional career, going 23-0 in his professional career, and 7-0 inside the Octagon. After a 2 year layoff, ‘The Eagle’ returned in April and defeated Darrell Horcher via 2nd round TKO.
