According to Russian outlet Pravda.ru, Zainalov fell off the building while desperately trying to rescue his scared cat.
It’s believed the kitty jumped onto a drain pipe after scaling the balcony following a fright.
Zainalov – nicknamed ‘Venom’ – is lucky to be alive after the insane fall, which is said to have left him with a fractured pelvis and broken legs.
Horrific footage on social media shows the 24-year-old lying in a pool of blood before he was carted off to hospital.
Zainlov’s loved ones are also in the dark about the exact cause of his horror fall.
In an interview with Sports24, his manager Vitaly Tarasov said: “I talked to Magomed’s wife.
“According to him, he was absolutely sober when this happened.
“We are now waiting for him to fully recover and start talking.

“Then we will know for sure what happened.

“He has fractures in his legs and pelvis.”
Zainalov – who boasts a record for five wins and nine defeats – was due to be back in action against Eduard Kuzminov at Hardcore FC 85 on February 2.
The Moscow-based promotion have offered to help cover his medical expenses in what will doubt be an extremely long road back to full health, let alone fighting.
