Conor McGregor and Khabib Nurmagomedov have cultivated our sport’s biggest rivalry this year.
It all started when Khabib cornered Artem Lobov in a scene that was recored on camera and went viral.
McGregor put himself in the captain’s seat after that incident, and flew into New York with a mob of men and launched a full-scale attack on Khabib’s entire team.
Now, that McGregor’s legal battle from the incident is over, the UFC booked this fight quick.
Having remained silent in the trash-talking department, McGregor just unleashed a bomb on Khabib’s team and family.
Check it out:
[Khabib’s dad] I can see you.
Cowering behind fake respect. Just like your middle child.
A quivering coward.
Ouch!
This rivalry will come to a head October 6, in the UFC 229 main event, in Las Vegas.
