Khabib recalls that he wanted to bite McGregor

UFC lightweight champion Khabib Nurmagomedov said that he wanted to bite Conor McGregor and his team.

"I suffered during training and the fight itself, I was saving up these emotions, so as not to break. But I got my own understanding. For me, it was not clear how such an athlete as myself can insult me. I probably wanted to bite them..." said the Russian fighter.

Nurmagomedov battled MacGregor in October 2018, and choked him in the 4th round.
