Very good brotha 😂Khabib Nurmagomedov reacts to Kamaru Usman's KO lossKhabib Nurmagomedov admitted that he is unsure how Kamaru Usman will react to his knockout defeat by Leon Edwards.During an interview with the Russian YouTube channel Ушатайка, Nurmagomedov provided his insight regarding Usman's loss, saying:&quot;I was thinking that [a decision win for Usman] is essentially how the contest will finish, just like he did to everyone else. But these fights are MMA, and you can see by yourself: For a second it all went wrong. Put his hand in the wrong place, your lights could go out if the proper defense is not in place. You can wake up in the locker room, and it’s over. [Translated by Mr MMA Shorts on YouTube.]&quot;The former UFC lightweight champ also confirmed that a trilogy bout is in the works as far as he knows. Nurmagomedov, who shares a manager with Usman, added:&quot;I’m aware that the trilogy is already in the works. I believe [Usman] can beat Leon Edwards, but after such a knockout, a lot of people don’t recover. It will be interesting to see, but I would love to see the trilogy.&quot;Watch Khabib Nurmagomedov's interview below:
