UFC 229 video recap: Khabib Nurmagomedov stops Conor McGregor by submission, then a riot ensues

Khabib Nurmagomedov submitted Conor McGregor in the UFC 229 main event, and then a brawl broke out.

What was the high point of the fight?

Khabib realized a takedown in the fourth round, and worked his way to the back of McGregor. A super-tight neck crank/RNC was applied that forced a tap from McGregor. This high point was immediately overshadowed by Khabib jumping out of the Octagon to attack McGregor’s corner. An all-out brawl ensued. McGregor was attacked by Khabib’s team in the Octagon. It was crazy.

Where do these two go from here?
