Former UFC Lightweight Champion Khabib Nurmagomedov shared his memories of the boxing match between the legendary Floyd Mayweather and Conor McGregor.

“Few people were interested in this fight. It was a historic event due to the fight between the MMA champion and the boxing champion, but many do not even remember what happened. It was like sparring and for me it was not a real fight because Conor is not a boxer. It was more like a set-up fight.

This is just my opinion. Maybe, maybe not... But what happened between me and Conor - everything was real. Everything before the fight, during the fight and after the fight,” Khabib said on Full Send Podcast.

Recall that in August 2017, Mayweather defeated McGregor by technical knockout in the tenth round.
