New Video Shows McGregor Throwing FIRST PUNCH At Khabib Team-Member During UFC 229 Brawl

LAS VEGAS, NV. (THECOUNT) — UFC’s undefeated lightweight champ Khabib Nurmagomedov has just defeated former two-division UFC champion Conor McGregor via fourth-round submission in a rear-naked choke in Las Vegas.

If you have been following the news, you know for sure about how Khabib jumped out and attacked Conor’s teammate after the fight, as well as how a Team Khabib guy went inside the Octagon and sucker-punched the Irish fighter while observing the whole thing.

But as we all know, there are two sides to a story and two angles to a footage. A new video has emerged showing what was not shown on the official coverage of the fight.

Apparently, after Khabib jumped out of the ring, the official video coverage shifted camera angles to focus on the Russian fighter attacking Dillon Danis. source

On another video from a member of the audience, McGregor visibly tried to follow Khabib out of the Octagon to join the brawl. When a crew from inside tried to stop him, he attacked a member of his opponent’s team instead.

Initial news reports stated that a member of Team Khabib attacked McGregor first. The man apparently entered the ring to attack McGregor from behind, unaware.

After this recent video came out, it turns out “The Notorious” swung at a Team Khabib member first.
