Controversial MMA manager Ali Abdelaziz, who has UFC champion Khabib Nurmagomedov among his clients, claims he has been hospitalized twice in recent years amid repeated attempts on his life.
Abdelaziz made the claims on Monday’s edition of Ariel Helwani’s MMA Show on ESPN, saying that he has been poisoned on at least two separate occasions.
“Somebody tried to kill me.” @AliAbdelaziz00 says he was poisoned in New York last month.

When pressed for details by Helwani, such as the type of poison used, Abdelaziz refused to reveal more.
“It doesn’t matter, I was poisoned,” he said. “It doesn’t matter. Like I said, if you’re my friend I’m going to love you more. If you’re not my friend, don’t come around me.”
I said people have tried for years not for 2 years but they can keep trying. Allah already has my time written, when it’s time no one can stop it https://t.co/MgqdDfwH30

Abdelaziz corrected reports which said the alleged poisonings occurred in the last two years, saying instead that the attempts on his life have been going on “for years.”
