could see us shelling out millions. "An early Notorious victory would be our biggest loser, though there's been a surprising number of bets placed on Khabib as the week has gone

martial arts bout, it’s quite breathtaking. I have to thank my management stable, Paradigm Sports Management." KHABIB - MCGREGOR IN NUMBERS > 30 Age 30 >  > The Eagle Nickname
