Hasbulla Magomedov's manager Asxab Tamaev finds a new rival to challenge 'Mini Khabib'
It seems like 'Mini Khabib' Hasbulla Magomedov has a new rival to challenge him to a fight.
Chechen MMA fighter Asxab Tamaev, who has been acting as Hasbulla Magomedov's manager, trainer, and publicist for the last many weeks, has found a new opponent for the 18-year-old Russian TikToker.
Not much is known about the new challenger yet. Asxab Tamaev calls him 'Tain' and claims that he weighs 32 kg (70.5 lbs). Translating (via Google) the description under the YouTube video Tamaev uploaded in Russian, it seems like 'Tain' is not new to training and working out. The video itself shows him being quite competent in the gym.
"Friends, today I interviewed the new fighter, Tain. During the conversation, he challenged Hasbullah and commented on the upcoming fight between Abdurozik and Hasbik. Tain is quite confident in his abilities and he is ready to start the press conference right now. But this is not surprising, so why be afraid if he can lift his body weight - we have clearly checked this in the gym," Asxab Tamaev wrote.
In the video clip, 'Tain' is seen lifting weights, doing crunches, and practicing shadowboxing with Asxab Tamaev.
