Magomed Abdusalamov has been training with Danny Garcia in preparation for his fight with Maurice Byarm on ESPN July 6.

He has become friends with Victor Ortiz, who may be working in his corner for his upcoming fight.

Magomed looks to be in great shape. People complain about fat heavyweights, but many European heavyweights like Abdusalamov, Price, Glazkov, Haye, the Klitschkos, etc are very fit and healthy.

Is this the southpaw boxer who wears a Dracula cape? His technique/defense is very sloppy and he's a very raw fighter...

Yes. He's an Avar, from the same mountainous area as Sultan Ibragimov.

His defense needs work, but he's fun to watch because he has power and always goes for the KO.

I had previously always assumed all Russian ******s or ****** heritage people were Tartars.

There's a variety of ****** ethnic groups in the former Soviet republics, several of them represented in pro boxing:

Chechens: Zaurbek Baysangurov
Kazakhs: Beibut Shumenov
Ingush: Rakhim Chakhkiev
Avars: Sultan Ibragimov, Magomed Abdusalamov
Uzbeks: Timur Ibragimov (Uzbek father, Ukrainian mother)
Tatars: Ruslan Chagaev (Tatar father, Chechen mother)

Dmitry Pirog, Oleg Maskaev, the Klitschkos, V Glazkov, Alexander Povetkin, and Gennady Golovkin are from Christian backgrounds.

Magomed may not be anywhere near perfect but he is fun to watch. Muarice isn't bad either.

This should end pretty early.
