Rizvan Magomedov, the manager of Khabib Nurmagomedov commented on the possibility of replacing Tony Ferguson with Conor McGregor, if Tony is injured and withdraws from a fight.
"Conor wants to replace Ferguson if something goes wrong? I don't believe it, because Conor is not a fighter, who trains, makes weight, flies to the arena and gets ready to replace."
"I don't even consider such an option. I think they just put on the card some couple of top lightweights that will be some kind of replacement, and they inform us about this with oral agreements..."
