Conor McGregor v Khabib Nurmagomedov the biggest fight in UFC history

Conor McGregor's comeback fight against Khabib Nurmagomedov is the "biggest fight in UFC history", says Dana White.

McGregor will fight Nurmagomedov for the Russian's lightweight title in Las Vegas on 6 October.

The Irishman, 30, who was beaten by Floyd Mayweather in a boxing match in August 2017, has not fought in the UFC since November 2016.

In July he avoided jail after pleading guilty to disorderly conduct following an incident at a UFC media day.

The former two-weight champion had faced multiple criminal charges stemming from an altercation in April with other fighters.

McGregor was filmed throwing a metal dolly into a window of a bus parked at a Barclay's Center loading bay.
