.
The 33-year old has many family members to help him overcome that loss, as he revealed in an interview with Let Me Interrupt You.
Zhumagulov stated that he has two wives, two wives and six kids.
Polygamy refers to the act of marrying more than one spouse.
This is the opposite to monogamy, which is the practice of having only one spouse at any time.
This habit was once widespread and still is practiced today by some.
However, polygamy in most countries is illegal or not recognized as such.
After it was banned around 100 years ago by Soviet authorities, Kazakhstan was among the countries that it was illegally in. However, it was made legal in 1998.
Zhumagulov said that Zhumagulov was also able to overcome the challenges of having two wives at first, but is now 'used' to them.
He stated that it was normal in principle. There were initially challenges, but everything is now fine.
One of the biggest challenges is choosing which one to return after UFC fights.
Zhumagulov said, "Well, from where did you leave? If I leave, for instance, my second wife, then I go to the first. If I leave the first, I go on to the second. One day here, one day there.
