Khabib explains why he refused to give an interview to Yury Dud

Former UFC lightweight champion Khabib Nurmagomedov explained why he did not agree to do an interview with popular Russian blogger Yury Dud.

"Why did you refuse Dud? In fact, there was no refusal. There just wasn't enough time, preparations were underway. I think before Conor was offered. I didn't give interviews the way I do now, I tried not to get emotional. Interviews take away the energy, and at that time I didn't want to. He has more hype there. Not my format," said the Eagle.
