Nurmagomedov hit the headlines earlier this month to boot when the UFC released new, previously unseen footage of his fight with former two-division champion, Conor McGregor back in 2018 – which appeared to show the Russian star spitting on his arch-rival after his submission win, before launching a slew of verbal attacks on him.
