UFC 205's Khabib Nurmagomedov demands title shot, tells Dana White to stop sending him ‘fake contracts’

Khabib Nurmagomedov kept his win streak going last night (Sat., Nov. 12, 2016) improving to 24-0 (8-0 UFC) after taking out Michael Johnson via submission in round number three of their 155-pound matchup at UFC 205 in New York, New York.

After the fight, "The Eagle" stormed toward company president Dana White, who was sitting cageside, and screamed for his long overdue shot at the Lightweight title. And during his backstage interview, Khabib also said he asked White during rounds to stop sending him "fake contracts," as the outstanding wrestler felt he was used as a pawn during the Conor McGregor and Eddie Alvarez negotiations.
