- Regular price€29,00

The essentials: 29 professional fights, 29 wins. Khabib Nurmagomedov retired in 2020 as reigning UFC lightweight champion and unbeaten — an exit almost nobody manages. Gold on black artwork, with his papakha and his belt. Premium cotton 180 gsm, crew neck, heat transfer print. Black, 7 sizes S to 4XL, €29, free shipping.
He did not lose, and he did not wait to lose before stopping.
A career without a defeat
From Dagestan, in the Russian Caucasus, Khabib Nurmagomedov came out of wrestling — a discipline rooted in his region, where he trained as a child.
That base is what made his dominance: he takes opponents to the ground and holds them there, in a control few have broken. The method is ground and pound: take down, hold, strike from the dominant position.
He became UFC lightweight champion in 2018, defended the title three times, then announced his retirement in October 2020, after his father's death and a promise made to his mother.
Record: 29 wins, no losses.
The papakha
The white wool hat on the artwork is a papakha, a traditional headpiece from the Caucasus. Nurmagomedov wore one to every walkout and every weigh-in.
It became his signature — recognised before his face.
What it looks like on
The artwork covers the upper half of the chest, in gold and ochre on black.
At the top, KHABIB in very large gold capitals with a metallic effect, with NURMAGOMEDOV small and spaced just beneath — partly masked by the illustration.
At the centre, the fighter from the waist up, bare chested, papakha on his head, head lowered, holding his UFC belt against him. Behind, a halo of gold rays.
At the bottom, UFC LIGHTWEIGHT CHAMPION in capitals, and a gold handwritten signature.
Premium cotton, crew neck, short sleeves, straight cut. Plain back.
