In his first interview since UFC 209, Khabib Nurmagomedov stated that the cancelation was 100% his fault. In fact, the Khabib Nurmagomedov UFC 209 cancelation upset many Russian MMA fans and enthusiasts. However, the cancelation revolved around Khabib not feeling well — and having to go to the hospital. Khabib does want to return to action in September and promises to train harder. He also wants to improve his health, while allowing his body to heal and avoid overexertion by listening to his coach and dietician. While a future match with Ferguson is still on the table, it will be up to Khabib to restore optimal health and fulfill his MMA dreams.
