These actions do build camaraderie, and that’s good for business. Plus, when his fighters get into altercations, Abdelaziz joins in on brawls - at least he has in the past. When they’re cutting weight, he joins them. In fact, Abdelaziz trains with his fighters. It’s possible that because Abdelaziz used to be an MMA fighter, he knows the game and can connect with his clients through their mutual experiences in the sport. One of the main reasons why is because the fighters he manages seem to like him.

However, The Washington Post doesn’t report that the book is accurate. That book names Abdelaziz and describes his history in the U.S. According to the Washington Post, McGregor more than likely got this information from a book, Enemies Within: Inside the NYPD’s Secret Spying Unit and bin Laden’s Final Plot Against America. In particular, McGregor called Abdelaziz a “terrorist snitch.” He claimed that Abdelaziz was removed from a flight on September 11, 2001, and that he was an informant for the FBI. McGregor talked about the fighter, his family, friends, country, and, of course, his agent.

Being a promoter on one side, (in the case of Khabib and Wallid) but being a manager to get your guy to sign? Does Wallid stay away from the matchmaking? Will Khabib stay away from the matchmaking? IOne & Only 🔥☝️ Thank you so much brother for everything. Wallid Also has success with Jungle Fight and also promotes his UFC fighters that come from that league.
