Najib Balala met up with the former undisputed, unbeaten UFC Champion Khabib Abdulmanapovich Nurmagomedov a few days ago and he couldn’t hold his excitement.

The Kenyan Cabinet Secretary of Tourism took to social media to shower praises on one of the humblest and most lethal fighters on the planet today who has an amazing record of 29 – 0 after he retired.

Najib Balala who is a Muslim takes pride in meeting up with Khabib Nurmagomedov for the very first time.

Khabib is the first Muslim UFC fighter who fought his way to the top to become the UFC Lightweight Champion which is a very competitive division.

Hailing from the Republic of Dagestan in Russia, Khabib has never been beaten, his record is perfect for any, maybe all mixed martial artists out there.

The 33-year-old Russian was the longest-reigning lightweight division of the Ultimate Fighting Championship(UFC), having held the title from April 2018 to March 2021.

“With the former UFC Lightweight Champion, Khabib Nurmagomedov. Khabib is the first Muslim mixed martial artist to win an Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) title,” Najib Balala wrote on social media as he shares a photo of himself with the Champ in Mecca.
