Muslim Salikhov is preparing to end his career in the UFC

After this statement, questions arose about his possible transfer to other leagues or participation in bare-knuckle fights. However, Muslim emphasized that he does not plan to continue his career in other formats, and leaving UFC will be the final point in his sports life.

Salikhov can be understood: he has a wife and three children, and he does not want to limit himself to fights. His plans after finishing his career include opening a small but profitable business and devoting more time to his family, avoiding health risks. However, for now he occupies high positions in the UFC ratings and performs at a high level, which brings him good income and fame. Therefore, Salikhov does not plan to leave the UFC in the near future, continuing to carefully select his opponents.
