Khabib Nurmagomedov TAMPA, Fla. – For the first few moments of his catchweight fight with last-minute replacement Darrell Horcher , Khabib Nurmagomedov looked as though he had a little ring rust to knock loose. Once free of that, however, Nurmagomedov (23-0 MMA, 7-0 UFC) slammed Horcher (13-2 MMA, 0-1 UFC) to the mat and proceeded to do what he does best: grind, and in this case, finish. The 160-pound catchweight bout was part of the main card of today’s UFC on FOX 19 event at Amalie Arena in Tampa, Fla. It aired on FOX following prelims on FOX and UFC Fight Pass. The fight came to an end at the 3:38 mark of the second round when referee James Waring had seen Horcher take enough punishment from the bottom, which is where he was trapped after the midpoint of the opening frame.
