See Why Khabib Nurmagomedov was filmed swimming against the current in a Russian river

UFC Lightweight Champion Khabib Nurmagomedov made headlines a couple

of weeks ago when he beat Dustin Poirier and unified the Lightweight Championships.

Now he is making headlines once again for a different sort of battle.

Nurmagomedov is known for his battles against nature. Previously having 'wrestled' bears, Khabib is now taking on another force of nature in Russia.

 His friend, King Farruh, recently posted a video on his Instagram where
 Khabib was filmed swimming against the current in a Russian river in freezing
cold glacier-melted water.
