Former undisputed heavyweight champion Mike Tyson preferred a Russian mixed-style fighter Khabib Nurmagomedov in a fight against Irishman Conor McGregor. Tyson said this at a press conference in Yekaterinburg.

"I like Khabib, I'm more worried about him and support him, but McGregor still has power, which will be a difficult, difficult fight," Tyson said.

Fight Nurmagomedov - McGregor will be on October 6 in Las Vegas. Nurmagomedov will be defending his UFC lightweight title.
