Manager recalls Khabib's kindness during UFC 223 championship win

Manager Azamat Bostanov shared memories from UFC 223 in Brooklyn eight years ago when Khabib Nurmagomedov won the UFC lightweight championship. Bostanov recalls how Ali Abdel-Aziz initially told him to stay away from their team after he interviewed Artem Lobov following the famous confrontation with Khabib, but Khabib intervened and said "This is our guy, he's just doing his job." Despite being exhausted after becoming champion, Khabib took time to meet with fans, take photos, and speak with everyone who came to his hotel room, even people he didn't know. Bostanov also mentions that Zabit Magomedsharipov broke two fingers during his warm-up at the same event but kept it secret to avoid being pulled from the fight. The story highlights Khabib's consistent humble and approachable nature even after achieving championship status.
