Daniel Cormier Encourages Usman Nurmagomedov to Join UFC at UFC 330
Usman Nurmagomedov attended UFC 330 in Philadelphia to support his teammate Islam Makhachev during his title defense against Ian Machado Garry. His presence at the event raised speculation about his future in the UFC, especially since he is currently a free agent after his last fight in PFL.
Nurmagomedov's knockout victory over Archie Colgan marked the end of his contract with PFL, and he received recognition during the UFC 330 broadcast, which displayed his record and status as a former Bellator champion. Daniel Cormier was seen backstage encouraging Nurmagomedov to make the transition to the UFC, emphasizing the importance of building a legacy.
While Dana White hinted at a potential signing with a social media post, there has been no official confirmation regarding Nurmagomedov's future. His manager expressed confidence in his ability to compete effectively in the UFC, suggesting that Nurmagomedov could outperform other fighters in the lightweight division.
