Former Bellator champion Vadim Nemkov stated in an interview that he believes NHL star Alexander Ovechkin is currently more recognizable in America than Khabib Nurmagomedov. Nemkov explained that hockey is extremely popular with American children and families, with many young players growing up idolizing Ovechkin. He noted that Ovechkin's recent record-breaking achievements, including surpassing Wayne Gretzky's goal-scoring record, have kept him prominently in the news.
