Hasbulla, who is 3-foot-4, discusses ‘deal to fight in UFC’
LAS VEGAS (BVM) – Hasbulla Magomedov is a massively viral internet sensation who in October announced that he “officially signed a deal to fight in the UFC.” But, Hasbulla is only 3-feet-4 inches tall at 20 years old, so will Hasbulla really fight in the UFC?
Hasbulla has been quiet about his five-year contract with UFC, but in a rare interview from Thursday, he sat down with the Full Send Podcast to discuss fighting and the deal.
When asked about how big (monetarily) the UFC deal is:
“My hand is too short. I physically cannot show how big it is,” Hasbulla said.
The Full Send Podcast even tried to get an answer on if Hasbulla is going to actually be in real fights or if he’s just being used to promote UFC events.
When asked if he’s going to be fighting at all:
“I don’t want to tell any details now, but everyone will find out later,” Hasbulla said.
Hasbulla noted that he “learned everything through street fighting” and knows that regardless of his height, he is a great fighter.
“I never lost any fights, it’s not existing,” Hasbulla said. “You can try (to beat me), if you bring someone, I will smash him and the person who brought him.”
That statement alone may get UFC champion Conor McGregor’s attention. After all, the two have been beefing online as McGregor has been tweeting some very vile things about Hasbulla, who may have Dwarfism.

“He (McGregor) is not like a fighter for me,” Hasbulla told the Full Send Podcast. “I don’t respect him as a fighter and if I meet him I will cause some problems for him.”
Fortunately for Hasbulla, he has the longest-reigning UFC Lightweight Champion Khabib Nurmagomedov and the current UFC Lightweight Champion Islam Makhachev by his side.
He also has other A-list celebrities in his corner. Hasbulla, who is Russian, showed the Full Send Podcast that Drake sent him a message to meet in person. But, he left him on read because he doesn’t know a lot of the American stars. Hasbulla has however met several major sports stars — like when he met up to punch Shaquille O’Neal in the face.
Whatever the future holds for his fighting career, Hasbulla’s net worth should come really clear in the coming months. He told the Full Send Podcast that the money he’s getting will allow him to help poor people because he can recall when he was once in need.
