Conor McGregor’s last fight was against Khabib. October 2018, the Russian lightweight Khabib won very easily, shocked many fans across the world. The way Khabib won this fight was via submission in the fourth round, however this was his first time in the octagon in two years and the defeat lead to both fighters getting fined and suspended from UFC. Also, in 2017, he went up against one of the best fighters in the world, Floyd “money” Mayweather! His only time being in the ring… probably his last time since he lost the fight! It was said that McGregor got $75 million just from the Mayweather fight alone! Unfortunately, he did lose but did he really with the amount he got?
