“Porje is physically strong. I did not expect it to be slippery, ”the athlete said after arriving in Dagestan.

According to him, he intentionally gave the enemy a neck so that he was tired during the strangulation of the guillotine. Nevertheless, during this maneuver he had to be quick.

“Porje turned out to be a very strong rival. Much stronger than McGregor, ”Nurmagomedov added.

On the night of September 7-8, Nurmagomedov defeated Porrier with a strangulation in the third round and for the second time in his career defended the belt of the UFC lightweight champion.
