Islam Makhachev Got Married to His Wife in April 2021

The Russian fighter who has only recorded one loss in his UFC career is married. He has a wife whom he reportedly wedded on the 8th of April 2021. It is said that the wedding took place in his hometown Makhachkala, Dagestan. And Showbizers gathered that UFC stars like his friend Khabib Nurmagomedov and Zubaira Tughukov attended the ceremony.

Be that as it may, the identity of his wife has remained unknown to the public. Her name is not known just as things like her family background, what she does for a living, and things of that sort are yet to be disclosed. This is hardly a surprise as Islam Makhachev has always kept his personal life away from the limelight his career attracts.

Respecting his desire to keep his personal life private is right and responsible. However, it is only a matter of time before the public gets to know more about his wife and the family he’s building with her. Given his career and increasing popularity, it would be very hard for him to keep up with keeping certain information about his life from the public.

Is Islam Makhachev Related to Khabib Nurmagomedov?

Islam Makhachev and Khabib Nurmagomedov are not brothers. They are not related but share a close bond that’s akin to that of brothers. As it is with Islam Makhachev’s wife, many details about the family background of the UFC fighter have remained unknown to the public. We can only confirm that he was born in Makhachkala and raised in a rural locality called Burshi.

Russian former professional mixed martial artist, the longest-reigning UFC Lightweight Champion, Khabib Nurmagomedov, was also brought up in the same locality. So the two have known each other since they were kids and the relationship has sustained over the years.

Nurmagomedov currently coaches Islam Makhachev among other mixed martial artists. It is widely believed that Khabib is grooming Islam to sustain his legacy in the UFC. The bromance between the two has undoubtedly been a productive one. Islam has without a doubt set himself apart as one of the most dominant fighters in UFC’s lightweight division.
