Eagle Fight Club is the new entry in the world of MMA promotions. Despite being a new company, Eagle FC has gathered humongous reactions from fight fans. One of the most important reasons is its owner Khabib Nurmagomedov.

The Dagestani is a former UFC lightweight champion and has a huge fan following. After his early retirement in 2020, Nurmagomedov decided to start his own promotion and used his fanbase for its marketing. Other than that, other major reasons for the success of Eagle FC are the unique and effective strategies.

The promotion is signing former UFC fighters who already have fame. The Eagle FC is blending in its Russian fighters with the former UFC fighters to make the fight cards exciting. So, let’s look at some of ex UFC fighters who are now a part of Eagle FC.
