Khabib Nurmagomedov has publicly responded to a social media post suggesting he retired from MMA for financial reasons. The former UFC lightweight champion stated that money was not the motivation behind his decision to end his fighting career. Details of his full response were limited in the brief announcement. Khabib retired undefeated at 29-0 following his victory over Justin Gaethje at UFC 254 in October 2020. He has repeatedly stated his retirement was primarily due to a promise made to his mother after his father's death.
