Khabib Nurmagomedov camped out at Dana White’s car after dominant UFC 219 win
Khabib Nurmagomedov surprised UFC President Dana White in the parking lot of T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas following his dominant performance against Edson Barboza on Saturday at UFC 219.
Nurmagomedov (25-0 MMA, 8-0 UFC), who overwhelmed Barboza (19-5 MMA, 13-5 UFC) for three rounds en route to a unanimous decision in the lightweight contender bout, wasn’t going to allow White to leave the final UFC event of the year without speaking to him first.
White shared a photo of the scene he witness upon arriving at his car following UFC 219 (via Instagram):
The victory over Barboza kept Nurmagomedov’s perfect record intact and set him up for a potential title shot at 155 pounds. “The Eagle” had choice words for lightweight champ Conor McGregor (21-3 MMA, 9-1 UFC) and interim titleholder Tony Ferguson (23-3 MMA, 13-1 UFC) at the night’s post-event press conference, and it remains to be seen if his conversation with the UFC boss will help him get one of those fights.
