Conor McGregor vs Khabib Nurmagomedov is one of the biggest rivalries in the history of combat sports. While their confrontations inside the bout are well-known, there was a time when McGregor attacked Khabiib’s bus.
When Khabib was to feature in a fight at the UFC 223 in 2018, McGregor attacked Khabib’s bus. It all started with Khabib confronting Artem Lobov- a long-time teammate of Conor McGregor. This brought McGregor to the Brooklyn Arena. McGregor ended up throwing a dolly at the bus carrying Khabib and other UFC fighters. Although Khabib came out unharmed from the incident, a few other UFC fighters in the bus got injured.
