Khaliev's passion for sports began with a visit to the wushu section at the age of 5. The boy quickly began to show results, and a year later he began to master taekwondo. An example for him then was his older brother, who was already at a serious level fond of sports and won prizes in various martial arts.

During the Second Chechen Campaign, the Khaliev family left Grozny. At first, they wandered around the country, and although at that time they had to change their place of residence more than once, the brothers did not give up sports. In each new city, sections were found where they continued to hone their martial arts skills.

It is not customary for Muslims to dwell on the details of his personal life, and therefore a man does not advertise his relationship with the opposite sex. According to rumors that circulate on the Internet, he is married to a Chechen woman, but there is no confirmation of this information.

Hussein is open to communication with fans, regularly publishes fresh photos on Instagram, most of them are devoted to sports and his activities in the halls. Khaliev's fans note that although he is a lightweight champion, he looks "powerful." With a height of 180 cm, its weight is 77 kg.

The first professional competitions appeared in the biography of Khaliev in his youth. Then he played for different regions of Russia. This was the mid-1990s, the height of the Chechen war. That time Khaliev recalls with reluctance, according to the man, the judges treated him biased only because he was born in the Chechen Republic. But this did not break the spirit of the athlete, but on the contrary, made him practice even more diligently in order to prove to himself and his loved ones that he is no worse than his brothers.

At that time, Hussein devoted a lot of time to full-contact hand-to-hand fighting and in 2007 for the first time became a champion in this sport. And a year later he showed himself in kickboxing, winning the world championship. Then he more than once took first places in international competitions in various types of mixed martial arts.

In 2010, Khaliev performed for the first time in professional competitions, his debut fight with Amirkhan Mogushkov took place in Chechnya and ended in the 1st round with a victory for Hussein. The next 2 meetings were also successful for him. But in the fight with Ashot Shahinyan, he had to stay in the octagon a little longer, but using a painful hold, he forced his opponent to surrender in the 2nd round.

A series of eight victories for Hussein was interrupted by the Swiss fighter Yasubi Enomoto, with whom Khaliyev held out all the rounds, but lost on points by a split decision. The first loss in his career had little effect on the athlete's further performances. He rehabilitated himself in the following fights, forcing the Ukrainian Mikhail Serdyuk to surrender, sending the Kazakh Aibek Sametaev to a technical knockout and "disconnecting" the American Tyler Smith.

Following this, the man demonstrated the ability to use painful techniques, in the first rounds he forced Tenieha Dixon, Samuel Trindale and Yoshihir Koyama to surrender. The first fight for the WFCA lightweight title was held in the fall of 2016. Hussein's opponent then was the Russian Shamil Zavurov - a knee kick knocked him out, and gave Haliev the coveted title. The next 3 fights with Valmir Lazaro, Tagir Tagirov and Oton Zhasse were not title fights, but brought victories to the athlete.

In the fall of 2019, Khaliev was waiting for another fight for the lightweight title. The opponent of the athlete was Ali Bagov, who already had a succession of five victories behind him. Their competition became the main duel of the evening at the ACA 99 tournament. Both fighters turned out to be extremely strong, reaching the 4th round, Bagov managed to grab the opponent's neck with his legs and carry out a painful hold. Khaliev fought to the last, but, exhausted, was forced to surrender, adding a second defeat to the statistics.
