Conor McGregor favors Khabib in Tony Ferguson fight

Several fighters already made their prediction for the long overdue fight between Khabib Nurmagomedov and Tony Ferguson. And so far, the likes of Brian Ortega and Jeremy Stephens are liking “El Cucuy’s” chances.

Conor McGregor, however, is favoring “The Eagle” to come out victorious.
