Khabib's mindset on Conor fight 😮

No wonder Khabib is 29-0 💪

"I am preparing for war & he gives me this excuse that this is only just business."

When i catch his neck, choke him & he tapped.

I was like he brings thousands of people from Ireland here in different part of world & you tap in front of them & you talk about being a warrior." - Khabib

Makes you wonder if Khabib thought about releasing the hold and just “Smeshing” too his heart’s content till he beat the lucky charms out of him.

He pretty much did this for the first four rounds. He’s been quoted in interviews before the fight saying he didn’t want to end it early, but make Conor suffer instead.
