Shara Magomedov has revealed that he contracted dengue fever during his training camp in Thailand ahead of his fight with Marc-André Barriault last July. He spent roughly two weeks bedridden with a temperature of 40°C, developing sores and experiencing hair loss before flying to Abu Dhabi still severely weakened.
