A few days ago there were rumors that Conor McGregor intends to visit UFC 242, which will be held on September 7 in Abu Dhabi. In the main event of this tournament, "an old friend" of McGregor Khabib Nurmagomedov will defend his lightweight championship belt in the fight against Dustin Poirier. In anticipation of this event Khabib advised the Irishman not to make in Abu Dhabi his trademark provocations, and just watch fights.

"It will be hard for him to fled Abu Dhabi, unlike Brooklyn. Let him sit and watch fights," Nurmagomedov said.
