Khabib Nurmagomedov called the reasons for the sensational defeat of McGregor

The champion believes that the Irishman has lost touch with reality

UFC Lightweight Champion Khabib Nurmagomedov commented on the unexpected loss of former promotional champion in two divisions Conor McGregor in a rematch against Dustin Poirier.

“This is what happens when you change your team, leaving the sparring partners who made you a champion and sparring with little kids away from reality,” Nurmagomedov said.

Note that McGregor was knocked out for the first time in his career. The first meeting of the fighters, held in the fall of 2014, ended with an early victory for Conor in the first round.
