One of the special treats going on in Las Vegas this week is the feeling that the inmates are truly running the asylum. Khabib Nurmagomedov couldn’t be talked out of his punctuality at the UFC 229 press conference, knowing damn well that Conor McGregor — nothing if not insubordinate — would be late. He stormed the stage at exactly 3pm local time, forcing Dana White, like a reluctant father figure, to traipse out there after him, forgoing the big introduction video and everything. Fifteen minutes later, Khabib was gone, and Dana was left to fend for himself.
