UFC 229 slutade i skandalscener efter att titelmatchen mellan lättviktsmästaren Khabib Nurmagomedov och Conor McGregor avslutades i fjärde ronden. ”The Eagle” vann via neck crank men utlöste ett enormt bråk efteråt då han hoppade över buren och attackerade irländarens lagkamrater.

What happened this evening was great and embarrassing at the same time. The UFC created this situation and let this behavior grow, now they have to deal with it…..

Watching the @TheNotoriousMMA vs @TeamKhabib fight. Unimaginable never thought it would go down like this. Crazier than my fight riot.

In my opinion khabib should not have done what he did after the fight but fuck it Connor deserves that and so much more in my opinion if you don't like it don't follow me and fuck off!!!!

Hey guys, two wrongs don’t make it right. Conor didn’t deserve that. No one did. But some things aren’t for fight promotion. Religion, family, country. Throwing stuff in Brooklyn. For Khabib it wasn’t fight promotion, it was really personal. Diff culture man. Sucks

Sounds like Artem versus Tukhugov is off the #UFCMoncton card! #UFC229

This shit is nuts!!
— Brian Ortega (@BrianTcity) October 7, 2018
Say what you want about Connor, he always says he’s humble in his win and humble in defeat. He literally stood there as khabibs team jumped the fence and sucker punched him from how exhausted he was. This shit is crazy

How crazy was that!! ??
