MMA: Umar Nurmagomedov to fight Brian Gonzalez at a tournament in Tashkent

Umar Nurmagomedov will face Brian Gonzalez from Argentina at a tournament in Tashkent.

Earlier it was reported that the Russian mixed martial arts fighter Nikita Chistyakov would not be able to fight against Umar Nurmagomedov due to health problems. According to his manager Alexander Skaredin, Nikita suffered from epidemic conjunctivitis in Thailand, like many other athletes who trained there.

The bout will take place as part of the GFC20 tournament on November 23 in Tashkent. 

Note that Umar Nurmagomedov is a cousin of UFC lightweight champion Khabib Nurmagomedov, who is expected to attend the tournament.
