Conor McGregor vill möta Khabib Nurmagomedov i Ryssland. I alla fall om vi ska tro den kontroversiella irländarens coach Owen Roddy.
Detta sa han till Sports Joe:
“Conor’s a mad thing. He’s very funny. He turned around to me and he’s like, ’There’s talk of me fighting Khabib. I might do it in Russia’.”
”And he’s like, ’You know what we’ll do? We’ll do it like Rocky, we’ll go to Siberia. We’ll train in the snow and I’ll get one of those yokes that you put on your shoulders to get the lats’.
Detta må låta som ett skämt med Roddy säger att McGreggor var seriös.
“He was serious. He was like, ’Let’s go!’
”I says, ’I’m not going to Siberia!’
”But that’s it. He could go. Conor does mad things, and that’s what we love him for. There’s not many people would do that but Conor’s like,’I’ll go to Russia and fight you in your back garden just to prove who I am’.”
Senast vi såg McGregor var när han kastade saker på en buss före UFC 223 och bland annat skadade två fighters vilket ledde till att irländaren blev arresterad.
