Expect nothing less from him, Khabib Nurmagomedov bashed for snubbing Conor McGregor from Top

Chael Sonnen was surprised that Khabib Nurmagomedov didnt put Conor McGregor in his top 15 MMA GOAT list. Former UFC lightweight champion, Khabib Nurmagomedov is one of the most accomplished MMA fighters in the history of the sport. As expected, his list of the top 15 MMA fighters attracted a lot of fans.

Chael Sonnen was surprised that Khabib Nurmagomedov didn’t put Conor McGregor in his top 15 MMA GOAT list. Former UFC lightweight champion, Khabib Nurmagomedov is one of the most accomplished MMA fighters in the history of the sport. As expected, his list of the top 15 MMA fighters attracted a lot of fans. 

However, the fighter, as expected, didn’t include Notorious Conor McGregor in his list and it was something UFC legend Chael Sonnen questioned in his latest YouTube video.

He said: “He really put some thought into this. He left himself off the list. How does a guy 29-0 not make the list. He should have put himself on the list. It was a humble move and I expect nothing else from Khabib but why isn’t Conor on here? Conor McGregor has won so many world championships, he forgot. McGregor literally trademark the phrase ‘Champ-Champ’. I find that hilarious.” 

Sonnen was impressed by Nurmagomedov’s list and by the fact that the ‘Eagle’ didn’t put himself on that list. But Sonnen couldn’t believe Conor McGregor wasn’t on the list given the achievements he had in the UFC. Given the history between McGregor and Nurmagomedov, it shouldn’t be that surprising for Sonnen to expect that but it seems like he really wanted McGregor to be on that list.

Jon Jones tops Khabib Nurmagomedov’s 15 MMA GOAT list

Nurmagomedov was a force of nature during his prime in the UFC. The undefeated fighter dominated everyone inside the octagon and never bled once. The Eagle is a role model for fighters all around the world, both inside and outside the cage. 

Khabib has been a fan of the UFC since before he joined and is aware of the best fighters in the promotion’s history. It was quite clear from his list of the top 15 MMA GOATs, which he shared on Twitter.

The list included everyone, from Jon Jones to Dominick Cruz, with rankings.

On two occasions, Nurmagomedov also put two fighters in the same spot because he couldn’t decide on one. Like his father, Khabib Nurmagomedov is a big fan of Jon Jones and gave him the top spot. Surprisingly or expectedly, he kept his own name off the list.
