Umar Nurmagomedov landed one of the best kicks of the night at a UFC show in Las Vegas

• Dominant fighting runs in the Nurmagomedov family.
• Following Khabib's footsteps, Umar remains undefeated in the UFC.

LAS VEGAS — Umar Nurmagomedov lived up to his family name as he produced arguably one of the most dominant wins of his 15-fight career Saturday at the UFC Apex in Las Vegas.

Ushered to the Octagon by his famous cousin Khabib Nurmagomedov who will be enshrined in the UFC Hall of Fame next week, Umar rarely made a misstep in his bantamweight bout against Nate Maness.

Adhering to an oppressive style of wrestling, Umar smothered his opponent Maness in the opening round while refraining from unleashing too much ground-and-pound.

While much of Nurmagomedov's work was on the ground — 67 of his 161 total strikes were thrown on the mat — Umar showed exquisite stand-up game as his kicking was on-point.

But Umar wouldn't be a Dagestani, or a Nurmagomedov, without showing off a mastery of wrestling — and that specialty fighting discipline was on display in rounds two and three.

He enjoyed 10 minutes and 49 seconds of control time, succeeded with three of four takedowns, and landed 128 strikes from 161 thrown.

The Octagonside judges rewarded Nurmagomedov's work with scores of 30-27, 30-26, and 30-25 for a unanimous decision verdict.

The UFC commentator and former middleweight champion Michael Bisping described Nurmagomedov's performance as "sensational" and a "complete shutout from start to finish."

However, Nurmagomedov was more modest, saying: "It was not easy — he's a tough guy."

Nurmagomedov says he's ready for a UFC bantamweight title shot

Nurmagomedov expects to break into the top-10 rankings in the bantamweight division.

He said he's ready for a title shot. "If, tomorrow, you say: 'Fight for belt' — I'm ready."

Advancing his perfect pro MMA record to 15 wins (one knockout, seven submissions, and seven decisions) without defeat, Nurmagomedov finished by remarking: "One day, I'm going to become champion."
