Hasbulla Magomedov has reportedly signed a 5-year contract with the UFC according to MMA reporter Igor Lazorin.<\/p>\n

Hasbulla, also known as ‘mini Khabib’, was in attendance for last October’s UFC 267 event in Abu Dhabi and made quite the impression.<\/p>\n

The viral mixed martial arts sensation was seen in the cage with MMA legend Khabib Nurmagomedov shortly after Islam Makhachev had make quick work<\/a> of Dan Hooker.<\/p>\n

Hasbulla was also cageside to witness Petr Yan defeat Cory Sandhagen, and had the same luxury for viewing Glover Teixeira’s historic win over Jan Blachowicz.<\/p>\n

UFC President Dana White spoke about meeting ‘mini Khabib’ during a previous interview with Bar Stool Sports.<\/p>\n

“So I’m going to tell you something. So the video that he sent saying ‘Dana White I’m coming to Abu Dhabi and UFC’, so when I posted that with me on the plane saying ‘I’m coming’, it’s the biggest post that I’ve ever posted.”<\/em> White said. “I have 6.7 million followers on Instagram, 6.4 million people watched that video. Is that f*cking crazy?!”<\/em><\/p>\n

The UFC boss was then asked how his meeting with Hasbulla went and if there was any chance fight fans could see ‘mini Khabib’ inside of the Octagon<\/a>?<\/p>\n

“Incredible,” White said of the meeting. “I love the kid. Is there more than a zero percent chance? Yes.”<\/em><\/p>\n

Today, MMA reporter Igor Lazorin took to social media and reported that Hasbulla has signed a five year contract with the UFC. While the contract doesn’t involve any Octagon appearances, it does suggest ‘mini Khabib’ will playing a part in promoting future UFC events.<\/p>\n
