Abdulmanap Nurmagomedov - the father of UFC lightweight champion Khabib Nurmagomedov, in critical condition in a Moscow hospital after he was admitted late last month with deteriorating flu and pneumonia-like symptoms.
The 57-year-old is said to be alone and in a critical condition at this moment in time.
His condition reportedly took turn for the worse due to improper treatment in Dagestan.
Adulmanap moved to allay fears over his health a few days after his first admission to hospital, insisting he was feeling fine.
Nurmagomedov has yet to comment on his father's admission to hospital, although he recently urged his followers on social media to make the most of their time with their parents.
His next outing is expected to be a lightweight title unification fight against newly-crowned interim 155lb champion Justin Gaethje.
UFC president Dana White expects the pair's unification bout to take place on Fight Island in the summer.
