Conor McGregor and Khabib Nurmagomedov are among the first to spring to mind when discussing the biggest UFC rivalry. ‘The Notorious’ and ‘The Eagle’ are openly antagonistic and have no respect for limits. This rivalry has been subject to practically everything negative, including maligning, fights, and arrests.

The two squared off in the UFC ring in the UFC’s biggest PPV event, UFC 229, where Nurmagomedov won the bout against McGregor with fourth-round submission. However, the dust has not settled yet on the Irishman’s side.

McGregor recently made some tweets about Khabib Nurmagomedov, looking back on their bout at UFC 229.

Another tweet from McGregor had a photo of Nurmagomedov and him in the UFC ring.
