Khabib Nurmagomedov will be aiming to extend his unblemished professional mixed martial arts record to 27-0 when he puts his UFC lightweight title on the line against Conor McGregor at UFC 229 as a -160 favorite (wager $160 to win $100) on the Khabib vs. McGregor odds at sportsbooks monitored by OddsShark.
A submission specialist early in his career, Khabib has regularly gone the distance in visits to the octagon in recent years. That includes a five-round unanimous decision win over Al Iaquinta in his last outing at UFC 223 that elevated him to the top of the UFC featherweight division, and marked his fifth fight to be settled by the judges in seven contests ahead of his October 6 UFC 229 matchup with McGregor at T-Mobile Arena.
