Undefeated lightweight Khabib Nurmagomedov is looking to get a title shot with a win over short-notice opponent Darrell Horcher who makes his UFC debut against Nurmagomedov this Saturday at UFC on FOX 19.

Thursday afternoon, news broke that Khabib Nurmagomedov will now fight UFC newcomer Darrell Horcher at 160 pounds at UFC on FOX 19 later this month after Tony Ferguson was forced to withdraw from the bout. The announcement came as a bit of a surprise to many given the fact that Nurmagomedov is a top ranked lightweight, and Horcher, a CFFC champ, has never fought in the UFC.

The UFC surprised many on Thursday when it was revealed that Khabib Nurmagomedov’s short-notice opponent for UFC on FOX 19 would be 12-1 reigning CFCC lightweight champion Darrell Horcher.

However, the UFC confirmed with FOX Sports on Thursday that Nurmagomedov would welcome Horcher in his UFC debut at a catchweight bout set at 160 pounds.

UFC lightweight contender Khabib Nurmagomedov is not happy with EA Sports. “The Eagle” took to Twitter to share his unhappiness stating that his in-game post-fight celebration (which you can see here) is disrespectful towards his Muslim fans.
