When Khabib Nurmagomedov finally got his shot at Conor McGregor in 2018, it was more than just another title defense. The build-up was fueled by deep resentment. Khabib had grown to despise McGregor’s constant trash talk, his insults toward family and religion, and the infamous bus attack in Brooklyn. By the time they stepped into the Octagon at #UFC229, Khabib carried that anger with him and was determined to settle it inside the cage. Once the fight began, fans saw a different side of Khabib.
