Khabib Nurmagomedov didn’t hold back when recently discussing Conor McGregor.
The Irish-born star suffered a brutal injury late Saturday night during his loss to Dustin Poirier, and it doesn’t sound like his former rival thinks any better of him following the bout. (RELATED: David Hookstead Is The True King In The North When It Comes To College Football)

Khabib told ESPN the following about McGregor:
Money and fame show who you are. All the time we hear that money and fame change people. No. When money and fame come, these two things show who you are. And what has [McGregor] done? He punched an old guy [in a bar in 2019]. You guys can watch everything he did and understand, it’s just like Dustin said, ‘This guy is a bag of sh*t.’
I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again for everyone. McGregor’s actions leading up the fight against Poirier and after he got hurt were so humiliating.
He behaved like a little man whose ego had been destroyed. It was honestly tough to watch. McGregor appearing to threaten Poirier after getting destroyed was just brutal.
That was without a doubt an all-time low moment for McGregor.

Given the fact that Khabib has never liked McGregor, it’s not hard to see why he thinks the Irish-born star “is a bag of sh*t.”
The man’s fall from grace has been nothing short of stunning.
Conor McGregor’s career is over. He’s won one fight in nearly five years.
At this point, he sells tickets and PPVs, but he just can’t win anymore. Shame to see it end like this.

Let us know in the comments what you think McGregor’s future holds. I have a feeling many of you will agree with me that it’s not looking great for the former champion.
