Khabib Nurmagomedov 'Doesn't Give a S--t' About Conor McGregor

Khabib Nurmagomedov was on stage for a UFC 208 pre-fight Q&A session on Friday, and naturally, Conor McGregor was a hot topic.

Nurmagomedov is definitely not McGregor’s biggest fan.

The undefeated Russian fighter, who will compete for the interim lightweight title at UFC 209, was asked about McGregor, and the response was quick and decisive: “I don’t give a s--t about Conor. I think about only belt.”

Well, then.

Following up on comments Nurmagomedov made during the Q&A, MMAJunkie’s John Morgan asked The Eagle if he believed McGregor would not defend the belt because he thinks McGregor has no intention of defending the title or if he simply wants to dodge Nurmagomedov. The top-ranked lightweight replied, “Both.”

He also didn't mince words about McGregor's loyalty to the promotion.

The McGregor vs. Nurmagomedov bout would be straight fire, but UFC 209 stands in the way. Tony Ferguson is a major roadblock to the potential matchup.
