Al Iaquinta Had a Feeling He’d Be Fighting Khabib Nurmagomedov

It seems that Al Iaquinta is quite the psychic.

In the aftermath of Conor McGregor’s crazy attack on the bus carrying the fighters for UFC 223 media day, Iaquinta had a feeling he’d be fighting the man McGregor was after, Khabib Nurmagomedov.

Originally, the 30-year-old New Yorker had signed to fight Paul Felder in a lightweight bout at UFC 223.

Iaquinta appeared on “The MMA Hour” to discuss the events that transpired over the days leading up to the event and the emotional rollercoaster ride he went on.
