MMA News Roundup: Khabib Nurmagomedov Shows No Remorse After Vile Abuse at Conor McGregor, Joe Rogan Blames Wife for Major Family Decision, Jon Jones’ Legal Woes Mount

If you have failed to catch up with the biggest stories from the MMA world, you have nothing to worry about because we have another daily roundup edition just for you with the most significant moments from the past 24 hours. To start this list, we have Khabib Nurmagomedov and Conor McGregor. Apparently, some new footage has popped up from the time of their rivalry.

Thereafter, we’ll jump to the news from longtime UFC commentator Joe Rogan. He recently appeared to shed light on his move to Colorado, pointing his fingers at his wife, Jessica Ditzel, for that decision. Finally, this roundup concludes with a rather concerning development about heavyweight champion Jon Jones. It seems like he’s in trouble with the law once again.

New footage reveals Khabib Nurmagomedov going bad boy on Conor McGregor

Six years feels like a long time, but in terms of the Khabib Nurmagomedov and Conor McGregor rivalry, fresh content pops up every now and then. This time, footage from their 2018 clash, the biggest UFC fight ever, showcased the level of contempt both UFC legends had between them. The bad blood was real and ‘The Eagle’ even strayed away from his typical ‘good boy’ image to bash McGregor.

At the end of the third round of their fight, both Khabib Nurmagomedov and Conor McGregor would go to their corners, and an eagle-eyed Islam Makhachev would point out to his mentor that ‘The Notorious’ had gassed out. He’d say, “Khabib, he’s dying there on his stool. Look at him, just take a look. He couldn’t walk.” Then what did you think ‘The Eagle’ did? Well, he walked to the center of the Octagon to call McGregor a “F***ing b*tch.” But the angry Nurmagomedov did not stop there.

It was apparent that Conor McGregor’s comments and actions in the buildup to the fight had certainly rubbed Khabib Nurmagomedov in the worst of ways. After the Dagestan legend tapped the Irishman out in the 4th round, he’d have the last laugh and give McGregor a reality check after all the verbiage. “I f***ed you up, b*tch,” said Nurmagomedov. The video from the moment has been shared on YouTube, and there are a lot more revelations for the fans to see.

Joe Rogan wouldn’t have moved to Colorado if not for his wife

Sam Tallent would urge Joe Rogan to do something for the Coloradans, to which the 56-year-old had an idea. Why not bring a comedy show to Denver? Yes, that’s what Rogan ideated. “Well, we could always do a Mothership there one day,” he added. Will Rogan move his comedy club over 900 miles away to Denver? That remains to be seen. Now, let’s sum up this news compilation with the news about Jon Jones.

Jon Jones faces misdemeanor charges

Things were going pretty well for Jon Jones until he had the controversial encounter with a couple of drug testing officials from Drug Free Sport International. A report about the heavyweight champion’s alleged misbehavior was reported to the police back on March 30, and after a couple of months, it appears that ‘Bones’ has been charged with 2 counts of misdemeanor. There will be a virtual bond hearing taking place this Wednesday the 17th of July, and things could get really ugly if he’s found guilty.

Apart from paying a total of $1,500 for the misdemeanor charges, Jon Jones could also spend some considerable time in prison, a period of one year, to be exact. Meanwhile, the UFC champion has maintained his stance that there was no incident at his house, citing the CCTV footage, where he claims that he “exchanged a high five and a hug” with the officials. We will have to wait for the hearing this Wednesday to see what comes out of Jones’s legal encounter.
