Last night, Khabib Nurmagomedov defeated Conor McGregor at UFC 229. While the event is receiving more attention for what happened after the in-ring battles concluded, it looks like McGregor is still interested in an official rematch and another UFC bout.

Speaking to ESPN, he also mentioned a possible suspension for Khabib Nurmagomedov, hinted at “big fines” in the near future and revealed that a thorough investigation will take place.
