UEFA's Habib Nur Mammadov, the lightweight mixed martial arts champion, has agreed to face Irishman Connor McGregor in a century-long fight in Moscow.
`` If McGregor wants it, Moscow is waiting for him, '' Abdul Manab's father and coach, Abdul Manab, responded to the Irish hero's claim that his popularity in Russia is more popular than in Russia.``McGregor is waiting for him, '' he said.
Nurmohammadov, 30, set a record after beating US rival Dustin Poirier on September 7, where he has not suffered any defeat in his professional career, winning 28 battles so far.
Nurmmadov refused to face McGregor, arguing that the latter begged him not to kill him during the confrontation he defeated last year.
Mammadov pointed out that McGregor is not worth replay, because in the past three years, he has only won one.
The Irish champion announced his retirement in March, and then expressed his desire to return and face Mammadov again.
