Azamat Bostanov recalls Khabib's hospitality on UFC 223 title win night

Manager Azamat Bostanov shared memories from when Khabib Nurmagomedov won the UFC lightweight title eight years ago at UFC 223 in Brooklyn. Bostanov recalled how manager Ali Abdelaziz initially told him to stay away from the team, but Khabib intervened saying "This is our guy, he's just doing his work." The post describes how Khabib remained gracious despite exhaustion, posing for photos and greeting numerous fans in his hotel. Bostanov also noted an incident where 20-30 Dagestanis gathered at the hotel entrance to prevent provocations from Conor McGregor's team. Additionally, he revealed that Zabit Magomedsharipov broke two fingers during warmups before his fight on the same card but competed anyway without telling the athletic commission. Bostanov emphasized Khabib's consistent humility even years after becoming champion.
