Khabib responds to McGregor’s lengthy Instagram post: ‘It’s only business’

On Monday, UFC star Conor McGregor gave an in depth analysis and round-by-round breakdown of his fight with Khabib Nurmagomedov, which he lost via fourth-round submission in the blockbuster UFC 229 main event at T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas.

McGregor didn’t mention what he said to Nurmagomedov at the end of round three, but ‘The Eagle’ was keen to remind the former two-division champion in a witty Instagram post of his own.

Khabib left a comment on the UFC’s official Instagram page claiming that his beat down of McGregor at UFC 229 was ‘only business’, which is what ‘The Notorious’ told Nurmagomedov in a grappling exchange in round three.
