Khabib Nurmagomedov may have once said that “too much movie make your heart weak,” but he does know who Leonardo DiCaprio is. And according to the undefeated UFC lightweight champion, he almost had a rough encounter with the Hollywood A-Lister amidst the UFC 229 post-fight brawl.
DiCaprio was apparently among the celebrities in attendance during that October 6th night in Las Vegas, and was nearly caught in the frenzy when Khabib leapt from the cage to charge at Dillon Danis and the rest of Conor McGregor’s team.
“Honestly, I didn’t recognize [the other celebrities in the crowd], apart from Leonardo DiCaprio,” Khabib said in an interview with Match TV (via RT).
