The father and trainer of UFC champion Khabib Nurmagomedov, Abdulmanap, has died in a Moscow hospital due to complications stemming from COVID-19 infection, aged 57.
A world-renowned mixed martial arts coach, Abdulmanap suffered a heart attack after being diagnosed with the deadly coronavirus, which required emergency bypass surgery. He was twice placed into a medically-induced coma.
Doctors had reported his condition as 'serious but stable,' but it has now been reported that the elder Nurmagomedov has sadly finally lost his battle with the disease.
