Andrew Karlov Aug. 13, 2020, 8:39 p.m.

UFC lightweight champion Khabib Nurmagomedov spoke about his emotions after Peter Yan won the promotion bantamweight belt.

“Was I happy about Yan's victory? This question is superfluous. What kind of eccentric do you have to be not to rejoice? Of course I was happy. It was seen that his hunger and motivation were higher than that of his opponent. Sometimes it gives a result..." Khabib said.

He also advised Yan to get less distracted when preparing for the fight against Aljamain Sterling.
