Zabit broke up his relationship with UFC: The real reasons for his sudden departure

Zabit Magomedsharipov once again revealed the details of his unexpected departure from UFC. The fighter said that deciding to hang up his gloves wasn’t a spontaneous decision. It was a logical conclusion after a long conflict with the organization’s management. The main factor was the constant cancellation of matches, which disrupted his training schedule and deprived him of motivation. Zabit also mentioned the issues with Yair Rodriguez. The cancellation of that fight was the final straw for him. According to him, UFC openly ignored his championship aspirations, not considering him as a potential champion, and gave priority to other candidates. This attitude, combined with the chaos in the organization, convinced Magomedsharipov that it was time for him to end his career. He doesn’t regret his decision. He believes that he has managed to preserve what’s most important: his own health and dignity.
