Nurmagomedov, who emerged victorious on the night, UFC 229, used the photo and video sharing service Instagram to present a glimpse of the what actually transpired in the Octagon. Some of the comments by McGregor in the build-up breached the professional code, and gave the fight a personal angle, and thus in the actual encounter, The Notorious One found himself at the receiving end of the Eagle’s acrimony. #Khabib, via an Instagram story, seemingly reflected on the post-match brawl with Conor’s Cornermen. He conveyed, “That evening he was ready to go to jail, but not lose in any way.” A lot has happened since UFC 229, though both have set foot in the ring only once afterwards, however on personal front, Khabib’s father and coach Abdulmanap Nurmagomedov passed away, on the other hand Conor McGregor announced another retirement, and is undergoing some serious allegations. When it comes to the future, Conor’s path still very much looks obscure, although a potential exhibition match with Dustin #Poirier, and a boxing bout with #Manny Pacquiao is making rounds, yet as of now nothing concrete can be concluded about these match-ups. On the flip side, Khabib Nurmagomedov is set to return on October 24. He will defend the Lightweight gold against Justin Gaethje, at UFC 254.
