I segerintervjun meddelade Khabib att han slutar med MMA, detta efter att hans mor bett honom att inte gå fler matcher nu när hans far gått bort.

Thank you for these guys, these guys with me, been with my father for more than 10 years. All my team, AKA with coach Javier, I love him so much, all my team. Today, I want to say, this was my last fight. No way am I going to come here without my father. It was first time, after what happened with my father, when UFC called me about Justin. I talk with my mother three days, she don’t want that I go fight without father. I promised her, it’s going to be my last fight, and if I give my word, I have to follow this. It was my last fight here.

Today is my last fight here in UFC. It was my father’s dream. Dustin and Conor are going to fight January, I choke them out, both of them. I’m not interested in this.

"It's going to be my last fight."

With a promise to his father, 🏆 @TeamKhabib retires as one of the greatest to EVER do it. #UFC254 pic.twitter.com/6brsEPp5E5
