Al Iaquinta thinks Conor McGregor could give up in Khabib fight: ‘He’s quit before’

If Conor McGregor doesn’t get his way at UFC 229, and Khabib Nurmagomedov weathers the early storm and imposes his will upon the former featherweight and lightweight champion — like he has done to so many opponents in the past — will ‘The Notorious’ give up and look for a way out of the fight?

‘Raging Al’ Iaquinta certainly seems to think it’s a possibility, claiming that McGregor ‘quit’ against Nate Diaz at UFC 196.

“I think he could just get after him,” Iaquinta said of Nurmagomedov in a recent interview with MMA Fighting.
