Video: Watch Episode 2 of Khabib Nurmagomedov's UFC 223 vlog series

Khabib Nurmagomedov’s long-awaited crack at UFC gold finally takes place next month, when he meets Tony Ferguson in UFC 223’s main event.

Following the release of the debut episode earlier this week, Nurmagomedov has published the second edition of his UFC 223 video blog, which can be seen above.

Between injuries, fight withdrawals and other issues, Nurmagomedov (25-0 MMA, 9-0 UFC) has had a long and treacherous road to his lightweight title fight against interim champ Ferguson (23-3 MMA, 13-1 UFC). The final weeks are winding down, though, and “The Eagle” is documenting preparations for the biggest fight of his life – one that earns the winner the undisputed 155-pound title.

UFC 223 takes place April 7 at Barclays Center in Brooklyn, N.Y. Nurmagomedov vs. Ferguson headlines the pay-per-view main card following prelims on FS1 and UFC Fight Pass.
