Joe Rogan is determined that if the best version of Conor McGregor had fought against Khabib Nurmagomedov, we could have had a completely different result.
The pair of MMA legends went against each other on 7 October 2018 on UFC 229, in the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas, Nevada, USA.
The intense rivalry, which burst to life, when McGregor threw a dolly through a bus window to try to get Nurmagomedov, eventually culminated in a fairly one-sided match-up.
After he had set up his archenemy for four rounds, the Russian finally locked a tight neck crank that forced the Dubliner to tap.
