The Sherdog rating puts McGregor in first place in the featherweight and eighth in the list of the best fighters, regardless of weight category.
Habib Nurmagomedov said that his manager Ali Abdel-Aziz could easily beat Conor McGregor.
“I have no questions either for the manager or for McGregor’s father, but only for him alone, and I will solve these issues in battle. I have no desire to defeat him - I want to destroy him, destroy his body and mind, to show who is the real champion and king, and who is Burger King. If Conor has questions for my manager, he can talk or fight with Abdel-Aziz - he has a black belt and he will definitely strangle the Irish in a fight, ”Nurmagomedov told BJ Penn in an interview.
McGregor is also confident in his victory too. “I spent my whole life conquering these two UFC titles. I put everything on the line and achieved it, and when I became a champion a second time, I was not even offered to defend in a featherweight and just deprived of my belt. The same story with a belt in a light weight. It annoys me, especially when I see how they distribute championship titles, who and how they win. It all inflamed me while I was out of fighting, but now I am hungry for victories and I want to come back and prove who the king is here, ”MacGregor told The MAC Life.
Khabib speaks and carrys himself like a man should in interview about this fight.
I support both fighters but I've just got a feeling McGregor's gonna win. McGregor is so good at controlling the distance against fighters with less reach and that left hand will be constantly threatening Khabib everytime he gets close. May the best man win on the night. And speed and strength that Nurmagomedov uses in his takedowns will shock connor, anyway this fight will be hard for these fighters.
