Update 1, new material Conor's popularity and bus incident:

Q: Why do you think this became such a huge fight? Did your behavior leading up to the fight play any part in this?



A: You have to give credit to Conor, he is very popular. Was I as popular as him before the fight? I think not. As an athlete I already proved that I am better then him, but when it comes to the popularity he is a lot more colorful then I am. Don't know how it looks now, but before the fight it was that way.

Second thing, this was a competition between two countries, that's for sure. Do you remember when I said, the Irish are only 6 million but in Russia we are 150 million. I didn't mean to offend anybody with this. I said this after my fight in Madison Square garden, when he fought in the main event. I became the number 1 contender, but the crowd booed me, because they didn't want their hero to be locked up in a cage with me. That's when I told them that they are only 6 million and there are 150 million of us and we'll se who's the best.



This was also a competition between two cultures. His culture and my culture, how I hold my self and his behavior. People were very interested in this. And of course the incident that is up until now unheard of in martial arts, what they did in Brooklyn when they attacked the bus. They could have killed two people, one could have been blinded since he got glass in his eyes and another one was cut by the glass. Whole world watched this. And you know what, I was upset by the UFC about how they promoted this fight. That they used the bus incident to sell the fight. I asked god to let us be locked up in that cage so we could find out "who is who". Who is really sitting scared on the bus and who doesn't.



Q: Let's take a look at the incident and how it all happened (They play the bus video 21:11). So this is how it started. I understand that if this provocation would have worked and if you would have gotten of that bus...



A: It's good that we got an end to this story and you all saw the end. Secondly let me comment this whole situation.



ALERT: INTERESTING STUFF BELOW



I had a camp consisting of 20 people with me (for the Iaquinta fight). We have rented our own bus go get to practice and back. You know what's interesting? UFC told me that day that I must ride alone for the media day. So I didn't go with my team, I went with all the fighters from the "red corner". I had with me two people, one of my guys and my manager. (22:28 Khabib points to the footage) Look at this carefully, the bus is going out and all of a sudden it stops and backs up. Why? We were almost out. Now you see that the crowd is running at us. What is the bus driver doing? He is suppose to just get out of here, but he stops and goes back.



I have many questions about that whole situation. I don't know if UFC planned this or not. So they started attacking the bus from all sides, there were about 20 of them. And there were about 10 guards from UFC and most of them are going after Conor. I'm about 70% certain that it was all planned by the UFC. I wanted to get out, this is confirmed by all the fighters that were on the bus. This whole incident lasted about 1,5 - 2 minutes.



This incident leaves me with a lot of questions.



I would like to point another thing out. In the 2013 me and him we texted each other. I even still have this conversation, we communicated normally. So when this all happened, if he would have wanted to find me, why didn't he text me? He could have told me, hey you stepped over the line and we need to sort some thing out. Well now you flew out here, why do you come to brawl with cameras. He actually came with his own cameras. He has a whole PR-team that follows him around and films him.



Another thing is that his was at the Barkleys center, it is huge, it's a 20 000 people arena. How could they have known where we were at that time? That's the first question. The second question is who let them inside the arena, when 20-30 angry people walk inside the arena The UFC staff should have stopped them, since Conor didn't have any business being at that Media-Day event. What are they doing here? Who are they looking for? Nobody know. UFC staff just escorts them through a bunch of corridors straight to out bus. You know, many people think I'm dumb because I'm an athlete, but I am also educated and my brain functions well. During my 15 years in fighting I haven't taken to many punches. So my brain functions well and I'm able to think for my self.



Q: This was also filmed by different cameras and different angles..



A: Of course.



Update 2, Khabib's evaluation of post fight brawl, discussions with UFC, situation about his teammates who lost their UFC contracts:

Khabib talk about his Sambo background, his reception in Dagestan and some other fluff. It was interesting, but I will not bother translating.



They discuss his fame and that so many people admire him and so on...



A: I feel that everyone has right to make mistakes, but I don't have that right anymore.



Q: The things that happened after the fight. Was it a mistake?



A: Deep down inside I feel it was a mistake. What ever happens, we shouldn't behave like them (Conor's team). But after all I wanted to let them know... I don't know... I have conflicting feeling about this, but I am leaning towards that this was a mistake.



Q (48:42) Question from boxing champion Svetlana Andreeva: I would also like to express my feeling about the fight because I rooted for you and wished you a positive outcome in the fight. One thing that worries me is your friend Zuba (Zubaira Tukhugov) and the other guys from your team. What is happening with them at the moment?



A: I have voiced my terms to them (UFC). Can you imagine this, you are going to war, and a man who follows you to harm has been harmed. You have won the war, you can go home and take a sleep, but that man who followed you is still harmed. That's not how a man acts and it's not how I act. I told them that if you want to ban him, fire him or whatever, you are going to loose me 100%.



Q: So that's your big announcement, the ultimatum, where you say that either they clear your friend and sparring partner, or you are leaving the UFC together?



A (50:01): You know, I think that a man, and this is a little sad, not always has a chance to distinguish himself. To show the person that you are and the values that you represent. To be a man in our day and age is very hard. I told them... they already started to negotiate my next fight... I told them no, wait, slow down. You punished my team and you want me to negotiate with you? That will never happen. This is what we will do, everything is going to be alright with my team. Because we didn't start this, we ended this. Don't get the stuff confused. We are Sambo guys, Sambo stands for Samooborona biz oruzhiya (Self defense without weapons), we didn't come with weapons. We went out against guys who are as prepared and well trained as we are and stood up for our honor. And now you pay them off, give them their purse, money and send them home and try to push all the blame on our team? This will never happen.

If you want to... don't want to curse... but if you do bad things like this. We will not partake in this, handle your business do whatever you want, but don't call me about the next fight. Until you sort out all the problems of my team, my brothers, don't call me at all. (BAD ASS!)



Update 3 (FINAL), Oprah moments

Now I have watched the whole thing. The last part is not about UFC, it's more about Khabib's views on different things, about childhood, about him building a school and kindergarten in his home village, they invited his childhood friends to tell about Khabib.



I've picked out a couple of interesting stuff.



One guy in the crowd mentions an article that some newspaper wrote about Khabib not being Russian since he is living in California and not coming back to Russia:



A (1:03:18): I have come here to talk about my fight and not some statements written in some newspaper. If you have run out of subjects and you want to discuss things that are unpleasant to me, you are mistaken. I won't do it.



(They try to ask some other question because there is some awkward energy, to diffuse the situation. Khabib comes back to the subject later)



A (1:04:32): The thing you discussed before. Some newspaper says I'm not Russian, I'm Dagestani, I live in California somewhere. I'm not going to discuss this stuff, I live in the mountains of Dagestan. I have a house there, we're building another house at the moment. I know who I am. Whatever I say, there will always be people who dislike me, and they will be taking stabs at me. I will say one thing, I have a Russian passport, so leave those provocational questions be.

(They are discussing childhood and his childhood friends. One of the guys told a story about how he and Khabib met and that they first got into a fight. He was 3 years older and hit Khabib since they were a big family and he describes that people talked about "the 800 brother". This guy was annoyed and hit Khabib. Khabib and one of his brothers attacked the guy and kicked his ass. After that they became friends)



A (1:13:16): You know in 1998 my father moved from our village to the city (Makhachkala, capital of Dagestan). We were 16 brothers. Some were going to school, some to university and some were studying in college. We had army discipline in the house. And because of this, like he's saying 800 brothers, we were very tight knit. We had a day to day schedules, we had guys who were "in charge" duty. We had no mother or sisters who could help around the house, we did it all by ourselves. We lived like this for 11 years inside 1 house. From this house we have 5 world champions, a UFC champion and a father who is an distinguished Russian coach.
