The UFC once built an entire empire around Dagestani fighters. Khabib Nurmagomedov changed the sport forever. Islam Makhachev became the new king. Khamzat Chimaev turned into one of Dana White’s biggest stars. The UFC expanded into Abu Dhabi, Saudi Arabia, and the Middle East — and Muslim fighters from the Caucasus became the face of the promotion. But something suddenly changed. In this documentary, we break down why the UFC may be quietly moving away from Dagestani dominance. From Khabib’s rise and the UFC’s billion-dollar Middle East expansion… to the arrival of Saudi money, TKO Group, Paramount, and the changing priorities of the American market. Why are fewer Dagestani and Caucasian fighters getting signed? Why do wrestling-heavy fighters suddenly seem less valuable to the UFC? And why have fighters like Islam Makhachev, Magomed Ankalaev, Movsar Evloev, Umar Nurmagomedov, and Khamzat Chimaev found themselves at the center of controversy in recent years? This video explores the business side of the UFC, Dana White’s strategy, the rise of PFL MENA, Saudi Arabia’s growing influence in MMA, and the possible end of the Dagestani era inside the promotion. 00:00 - Why the UFC Wants Dagestani Champions Gone 02:25 - CHAPTER 1.
