UFC megastar Conor McGregor and undefeated UFC lightweight champion Khabib Nurmagomedov are currently set to throw down in less than a month. With the two world-class mixed martial artists now just moments away from meeting face to face for their first press conference, “The Eagle” has come forward with a message for his upcoming opponent.
Nurmagomedov and McGregor are set to headline UFC 229. The live pay-per-view event will take place Oct. 6. However, the two fighters are meeting face to face much sooner than that.
The UFC is hosting a press conference in promotion for UFC 229 on Thursday, Sept. 20, at 5:00 p.m. ET from within the Radio City Music Hall in New York. Ahead of the press conference, Khabib Nurmagomedov has decided to imply that “Notorious” is a chicken.
