Khabib Nurmagomedov, the Russian Mixed Martial Artist and unbeaten UFC Fighter, faces Conor McGregor at UFC 229 in October. Khabib is one year younger than McGregor but three centimetresn taller at 178cm, but they are the same weight at 70kg.

He is the current UFC Lightweight Champion, and he holds the record for the most takedowns in UFC, with 27 attempts in three rounds against Abel Trujillo.

Top McGregor vs Khabib Betting Markets

There are a number of different markets worth betting on when it comes to McGregot vs Khabib, including the mode of victory. Will it be on a decision? Khabib has never won with anything less than a knockout, but this could be one of the toughest fights of his career, so there could be some real value in that either way. Knockout, technical knockout and submission are also possible ways of winning that could create lucrative markets. There will be even more markets available closer to the fight in October, but they are already hotting up.

You can also look at what round the fight will be decided in, and which fighter will win in which round, with different odds for the likelihood of it happening. There is an option to bet on whether there will be a Time Out in the fight, yes or no, whether there will be a points deduction, and whether the fight will go the distance.

If you fancy either to win by knockout, Khabib is at 4/1, while McGregor is 17/10, showing just how how dominant the corner has been as I’d expected to be in this fight. The draw, which is incredibly unlikely, can be found at 22/1. A points win for Khabib is also 4/1, while McGregor is at 13/1.

McGregor vs Khabib Live Streaming

To watch the fight, you will need to subscribe to BT Sport in the UK, though it is not yet clear which of their channels they will be screening it on. From next year, UFC will be live on the streaming service, Eleven Sports, but this is the final time BT will house  Mixed Martial Arts combat in that form. The event may also be steamed on the FOX Sports Go app, but British audiences will have to watch on the TV with BT Sport, or on their website.

McGregor vs Khabib Betting Tips and Predictions

McGregor is widely known as one of the greatest Mixed Martial Artists in the world and he reached worldwide fame when he fought Boxing legend Floyd Mayweather in the ring back in 2017. He lost, but earned a lot of money and has since returned to the cage and continued to shine in a more physical form of combat. McGregor has fought 24 times in his career, winning 21 by knockout and three on points, but his unbeaten record will come under severe pressure from Khabib, who has really impressed across the span of his career, winning all 26 of his fights by knockout.

These bouts are tough to call, but Khabib’s record is phenomenal, and McGregor is still finding his feet back under MMA rules. He also has the slight height advantage, which will also give him more confidence, because that means he’ll have the better reach. But McGregor’s speed will cause the Russian problems. But Khabib is at 21/20 with Betfair to win KO, TKO or Submission, which seems like good value to us.

Khabib vs McGregor Press Conference

Unsurprisingly, sparks flew when the two fighters came together for their press conference recently. McGregor prides himself on being loud and brash in front of the press as well as in the ring, so he was often shouting over his opponent and insulting him. Khabib, while replying, seemed to keep his cool, with his head coach Javier Mendez claiming he was not rattled.

“I said, ‘Look, he’s gonna play with you, he’s gonna hit every button, he’s gonna hit religion, politics, family. You can’t let it affect you,’” Mendez said earlier this week. “That’s [McGregor’s] game, that’s what he does, and he’s a master at that — I wish he wouldn’t do it, but that’s who he is.”
