He has to change his way of life.<\/p><cite>Khabib Nurmagomedov<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\nNurmagomedov believes it&#8217;s not too late for McGregor to modify his lifestyle.\n\nNurmagomedov explained that, if McGregor changes, it could positively influence other lives. Therefore, he wishes him a transformation. Otherwise, he will suffer constant punishment.\n\nThis stance contrasts with Nurmagomedov&#8217;s comments in the years following their rivalry, where McGregor criticized Nurmagomedov&#8217;s personal life. In 2019, Nurmagomedov stated that their conflict &#8220;will never end&#8221; and that, if they met, they would fight &#8220;100%&#8221;.\n\nMcGregor hasn&#8217;t fought since suffering a leg fracture in a TKO loss to Dustin Poirier in July 2021. However, the 37-year-old fighter has recently rejoined the UFC&#8217;s mandatory testing pool, preparing for a possible return.","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Khabib Nurmagomedov Desires a Transformation in Conor McGregor Mixed martial arts (MMA) legend Khabib Nurmagomedov has expressed his wish for his former rival, Conor McGregor, to take a new direction in his life.
