UFC staged bus attack claims Nurmagomedov

Khabib Nurmagomedov believes the UFC staged Conor McGregor's attack on his bus that eventually led to the pair meeting in Las Vegas a week ago. “Let me tell you how that all played out. I had a team of about 20 men. We had a bus just like that, hired (for us) to go to the gym, press conferences all the media activities and so on," he told RT. “But you know what’s interesting – on that day the UFC told me that on that media day I had to arrive alone. So I was travelling with all the other fighters who would fight from the red corner. I was in the red corner as well as a favourite. With me, there was only one person (from my team) and my manager. “And if you watch the footage, you can see that the bus almost gets to the gate, and then suddenly it stops and pull back. Why? If you see that some people are attacking the bus, then you should keep moving and get outside (from the parking lot). But then you stop and pull back. Why? For me, there are a lot of questions. I don’t know whether the UFC made it all on purpose or not. “But they started to attack (the bus), break (windows). It was a crowd of around 20 men. Inside (the bus) we had three security guards. And as you can see (in the video), there were security guards outside as well, trying to stop Conor. In my opinion, I give 70 per cent that it was a set-up. “I wanted to get outside, and all the fighters who were in the bus already confirmed it in their interviews, as well as all the managers. It all happened in about one or two minutes. I don’t know, but this incident leaves a lot of questions for me."
