Fighters react to Khabib Nurmagomedov’s injury
Late Thursday night it was revealed that Khabib Nurmagomedov had injured his rib and would no longer be able to fight Tony Ferguson at the TUF 22 finale on December 11th.
The next morning Nurmagomedov took to Instagram to let his followers know that he may never return to the Octagon.
Fighters took to Twitter to react to the news of Nurmagomedov’s injury, as well as the news of him potentially stepping away from the sport.
