The UFC 229 ceremonial weigh-ins are complete, and a packed house was on hand to see Khabib Nurmagomedov and Conor McGregor have the staredown they failed to have at Thursday’s press conference. To the surprise of no one, it was intense, and Dana White tried really hard to prevent something nasty from breaking out.
McGregor slapped Nurmagomedov’s outstretched fist, and then with White in the middle of everything, Conor fired off a kick towards the UFC lightweight champion, which was nowhere close to landing, but nevertheless a sight to see!
