Khabib on defeating McGregor: "A man could die from a takedown like that"

Former UFC lightweight champion Khabib Nurmagomedov recalled his fight with Conor McGregor.

"You saw what happened then. Take away Herb Dean and you can see for yourself whether I would have gone all the way or not. A man could die from a tackle like that. I could strangle you backstage, you'd know what I mean. When a man strangles you and has been doing it for thirty years, that is a weapon. If there's no judge, what can it be? He took my hands off, he took my grip off. We are reasonable people and we understand everything, we understand what could have been," Nurmagomedov said.
