UNSEEN footage released by the UFC revealed exactly what was said between Khabib Nurmagomedov and Conor McGregor in the octagon.
The two met in a bitter grudge match in 2018 in a super-fight that sold a UFC record 2.4million pay-per-views.

Tensions continued to rise in the lead up to the bout and emotions were running high in the cage.
In never-before-seen footage, Nurmagomedov is landing brutal punches to a downed McGregor while hurling insults.
He says: “What happened? Let’s talk now. Let’s talk. Let’s talk now.”
Nurmagomedov then says: “F***ing b***h.”
The Russian – who retired undefeated – tapped McGregor out in round four before again going on the verbal attack.
Nurmagomedov shouted: “I f***ed you up, b***h.”
The night infamously ended in a brawl between the two camps in and out of the cage but a rematch never materialised.
Nurmagomedov, 35, fought only twice more following the death of his dad and mentor Abdulmanap due to Covid.

He retired soon after the passing in a promise made to his mother to not fight on without the influential Abdulmanap.
McGregor, 36, meanwhile was due to make his comeback after three years out on June 29 against Michael Chandler, 38.
But for the first time in his UFC career, he pulled out amid a toe injury with talks ongoing to reschedule the fight.
