One of the most revered athletes to ever graced the octagon, Khabib Nurmagomedov retires with an impressive and dominant 29 wins unbeaten in the prestigious mixed martial arts tournament UFC. Even with the dominant performance in the sport, Khabib has always been known to show humbleness in his acts, remaining true to his Islamic faith and heritage. Often reciting "Alhamdulillah" and "Insha Allah" in his public speeches, he is an inspirational figure for Muslims everywhere. Who is Khabib Nurmagomedov? Image Credit: USA Today Sports Khabib Nurmagomedov was born on the 20th of September 1988 in Sil'di, in the Dagestan, Russia. He then later moved to Kirovaul, which was where his interest in martial arts was ignited as he watched students training at the gym. It is not unusual that the children from Dagestan begin training for MMA at an early age and so did Khabib when he was 8 years old. His father, Abdulmanap Nurmagomedov was an army veteran, he looked after the young prodigy’s training. At 9, Khabib was known to be a good grappler, he even fought a bear. His family moved to Makhachkala, the capital of Dagestan in 2001. From the age of 12, Khabib trained in wrestling, judo, and later took up combat sambo. Khabib’s professional journey began in 2008 when he made his MMA debut securing 4 consecutive wins in 1 month. At present, Khabib is signed to the Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) where he reigns the UFC Lightweight Champion. With an impressive statistic of 29 wins and 0 losses, he holds the longest undefeated active streak in MMA history. Khabib “The Eagle” Nurmagomedov believes going 30-0 would be the 'Floyd Mayweather record of MMA', a record he aims to achieve before he retires. As of 12th October 2020, Khabib is ranked #2 in the UFC men's pound-for-pound rankings. Adding more to his achievements, he is also the most followed Russian celebrity on Instagram having more than 21 million followers. Khabib is the first Muslim to win a UFC title. What is the meaning of the name Khabib Nurmagomedov? Khabib: is the Arabic word Habib حبيب meaning "beloved" or "most loved". Nur: is the Arabic word Nur نور meaning "The divine light". Magomed: the Russian form of the Arabic name Mohamed or Muhammed محمد. It means "praised" ov: a Russian suffix added to male names, meaning "belonging to". The female equivalent of this is "-yeva" or "-ova" Khabib Nurmagomedov's Retires The Russian star Khabib Nurmagomedov faced one of his toughest challenges to date in the form of Justin Gaethje from America for the UFC Lightweight crown on ‘Fight Island’. Nobody has dominated the MMA universe quite like Khabib “The Eagle” Nurmagomedov. With a phenomenal record of 28 wins before the bout, Nurmagomedov has not lost a single fight. If there was anyone who could've broken the streak, it was Gaethje. Gaethje previously gave his career-best performance by defeating Tony Ferguson with a fifth-round TKO at UFC 249 capturing the interim championship. “I'm here to ruin Khabib Nurmagomedov's day," Gaethje said at one of the interviews before the fight. The event though showed otherwise. Following his 29th unbeaten victory at UFC 254, Khabib announced that the win over Gaethje was his final night in the octagon and he announced his retirement in his post-fight interview. The statistics as of his last fight: Image Credit: UFC Khabib Nurmagomedov 29 wins (8 KOs, 11 subs, and 10 decisions), unbeaten.

Malaysia's Conditional Movement Control Order (CMCO) Image Credit: Ishan @seefromthesky on Unsplash Arguably one of the biggest news this week has to be the implementation of the CMCO or Conditional Movement Control Order in Malaysia. After experiencing an upsurge of Coronavirus (COVID-19) cases, Malaysia has decided to curb the new wave with the implementation of this CMCO. Similar to the past CMCO, this CMCO will limit the movement of the residents in the affected states. The CMCO is in effect for the federal territories of Kuala Lumpur, Putrajaya, and Selangor state. It began earlier this week on Wednesday, 14 October, and is currently set to last till 27 October this year. Under the CMCO most industries can continue their operations under the condition that they practice the health precautions in place. Meanwhile, schools and places of worship have been closed along with the ban on sporting events in the country. This decision might have been influenced by the interstate travel ban enforced in Sabah last week, which was also due to the rising number of COVID-19 cases there. Together, the CMCO is said to affect around 11 million or 30% of the country’s population. For more information on the CMCO and travel advisories, please check with the respective authorities. Hong Kong and Singapore Travel Bubble Image Credit: Dan Freeman on Unsplash Announced on Thursday, 15 October, Hong Kong, and Singapore has decided to set up a travel bubble between the two cities. With the low incidence of COVID-19 cases in the two cities, the decision was made in order to re-establish overseas travel and lift complications such as quarantine or stay-home notices for visiting travelers. In this new travel bubble, there will be no travel purpose restrictions and controlled itinerary but, travelers will still need to test negative on the COVID-19 test and travel on dedicated flights for those traveling under this new bubble. Currently, there are no set dates for the launch of this new travel bubble. The launch date and implementation details will be announced in due course, according to the ministry. New Zealand and Australia Travel Bubble Started Today (Trans-Tasman) Image Credit: John Kappa ツ on Unsplash Some more welcoming news in the travel world. Today, 16 October, the Trans-Tasman travel bubble is in effect. This travel bubble between New Zealand and Australia, with the first passengers arriving in Sydney, Australia earlier today. The travelers arriving in Australia from New Zealand are not required to quarantine themselves upon arrival. This is in line with Australia’s tentative reopening to international tourism. However, the arrangement is not reciprocal between the two countries. Travelers from Australia traveling to New Zealand will still be required to undergo the 14-day quarantine amongst other requirements. Travelers from the no-quarantine flights might still need to be quarantined depending on the Australian state or territory they are planning to enter. Please refer to the respective authorities for more details on the travel advisories and safety measures in place. Reciprocal Green Lane between Singapore and Indonesia are in the works Image Credit:Swapnil Bapat on Unsplash The prospect of traveling between Singapore and Indonesia looks to be promising. Similar to the other reciprocal green lanes between Singapore and some other countries which are already in effect, Indonesia looks to be the next addition to that list. Indonesia and Singapore have agreed on implementing a reciprocal green lane which will allow for essential business and official travel between the two countries. Applications for travel under this reciprocal green lane will begin on 26 Oct. The application is only open for Singapore and Indonesian residents as well as permanent residents of the two countries. The requirements are similar to the other reciprocal green lane arrangements with the need for sponsors for travel, SafeTravel Pass / Visas, Pre-departure and Post-arrival COVID-19 tests. Points of entry and exits have also been designated. For air travel, Changi Airport and Jakarta’s Soekarno-Hatta International Airport has been designated. For Sea Travel, Tanah Merah Ferry Terminal and Batam Centre Ferry Terminal has been chosen as the points of entry and exit. This point of entry and exit is a measure to reduce the possibility of infectious patients slipping into the communities.
