On August 12, 2006 he was scheduled to participate at K-1 World GP in Las Vegas II but the last moment visa problems kept him out of the United States. He was replaced by Gary Goodridge.[1]

On November 2, 2007 at K-1 Fighting Network Turkey 2007 Magomedov fought against Gökhan Saki. After the fight there was a misunderstanding between both fighters, when Saki kicked him at the end of the match to instigate that he wants to hug him. Magomedov however, thought it was unsportsmanlike, and gave Saki a head butt. Then a brawl ensued, between trainers and managers, but ultimately, everything was settled and the two fighters gave each other a hand. Magomedov lost by unanimous decision.
