Khabib Nurmagomedov was able to successfully defend his title with a win over Conor McGregor via fourth round submission. But after the post-fight melee involving him, some of his teammates, and McGregor’s training partner Dillon Danis, the fate of “The Eagle” as champion is now hanging in the balance.
During the post-fight media scrum, UFC president Dana White was asked if Khabib would be stripped of the title after the said incident. According to the company executive, all of it will depend on the final decision of the Nevada State Athletic Commission.
“No, it’s not 100% (that Khabib won’t be stripped),” White told media members.
