UFC apparently tried to get Khabib Nurmagomedov and Conor McGregor to serve as coaches for an upcoming season of The Ultimate Fighter, but the lightweight champion turned it down.
Speaking to TMZ Sports, Ali Abdelaziz, Nurmagomedov's manager, said Nurmagomedov turned down an offer to coach on the reality show and a rematch with McGregor because he considers McGregor to be "human trash" (starts at 3:45 mark):
Abdelaziz noted the offer came when UFC President Dana White called him last week to pitch the show, which would have been set up if Nurmagomedov defeats Justin Gaethje on Oct.
