Former Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) lightweight champion Conor McGregor, who also wore gold at 145 pounds, is considered one of the division’s most powerful punchers. And “Notorious” has the numbers to back it up, scoring 19 violent knockouts in 22 wins.
- A 27-year-old Mackenzie Dern is an American UFC female fighter with a Brazilian heritage. She began practicing jiu-jitsu and martial arts when she was only 3 years old. Dern, a former world champion in Brazilian jiu-jitsu, has 10 wins and 1 loss in her professional MMA career and she is currently competing in the UFC.
- In 2017, she also designed the UFC 213 Fighter weigh-in shirts for Reebok. Arianny Celeste. Photo: mmamania.com. When we talk about the UFC octagon girls, the first name that comes to mind is Arianny Celeste. Born as Penelope Lopez Marquez on November 12, 1985, Celeste is the most veteran octagon girl right now, having made her UFC.
- UFC lightweight champion Khabib Nurmagomedov appears to be retired, and if he is, the UFC will strip him of the belt at some point. If that happens, Poirier will be a likely candidate fighting for.
- UFC welterweight champ Kamaru Usman can enter pound-for-pound No 1 talk with a win vs Gilbert Burns, but quiet demeanour and technical style hamper his star power.
But in the case of (still) reigning 155-pound kingpin Khabib Nurmagomedov, the hardest shots he ever took came in his UFC 254 pay-per-view (PPV) headliner against top contender and former World Series of Fighting (WSOF) champion Justin Gaethje.
That’s according to UFC President Dana White.
“Khabib was telling me this when I was with him last night, and I didn’t know this, maybe you guys knew this but all the stuff that him and Gaethje were talking about during that fight,” White said during the UFC Fight Island 7 post-fight press conference (transcribed by Damon Martin). “He told me last night that he’s never been hit or kicked harder ever in a fight than by Gaethje.”
Like he did in his title fight against McGregor at UFC 229 back in late 2018, Nurmagomedov (19-0) was able to weather the storm and work for a fight-ending submission. And no “Eagle” fight would be complete without some back-and-forth banter during the bout.
“Gaethje hit him with a couple of shots and then he thought Gaethje looked kind of weird and he pointed at him and said ‘you have jetlag’ in the middle of the fight,” White continued. “Gaethje said ‘No, I don’t’ and hit him with an uppercut and a left hook. Khabib said something to him again and he leg kicked him. Then I guess when Khabib took him down and was on top of him he said, ‘Now what are you going to do?’”

Nurmagomedov, 32, retired after defeating Gaethje but a persistent White insists “The Eagle” will fly again if McGregor is able to do something “spectacular” against Dustin Poirier — another victim of the Dagestani’s hall-of-fame run — in the UFC 257 main event this weekend in Abu Dhabi.
