After months of worrying reports, Khabib Nurmagomedov can go back to enjoying his retirement after settling his debt with the Russian tax service.

The Dagestani has left a flawless legacy in the sport of mixed martial arts and will forever be remembered as one of the greatest to ever do it. Despite being loved by millions, ‘The Eagle’ almost tarnished his name in his home country due to alleged tax evasion.

$ 3.4 million was the reported amount owed to the tax authorities by Khabib Nurmagomedov. Thankfully, that period of uncertainty is over as Khabib was been declared debt free by Telegram outlet SHOT.

Amid the confusion of his large amount of debt, the 35-year-old had almost $ 1 million worth of cars seized — alongside his bank accounts — by the Russian government. 

Though nothing was confirmed, reports claimed that in order to clear his debts, the head of the Nurmagomedov clan would return to the UFC. And when he was spotted back with his former coach Javier Mendez, speculation began to pile up, though that now looks like an improbability.

Other rumors hinted at Khabib possibly leaving Russia for good. The global star was thought to have fled his home and was contemplating becoming a UAE citizen.

While that no longer needs to be the case, there’s one place that the combat sports icon is always welcome. According to the man himself, Donald Trump is a huge fan of the former UFC champion, announcing him as his favorite fighter earlier this month.

The feeling is mutual between the two, as Khabib Nurmagomedov was snapped sharing words with Donald Trump at a recent UFC event. Khabib made a plea to the former US President and believes he is the only man who is powerful enough to step in and stop the ongoing war between Israel and Palestine.
