In the first Metaverse fight this past weekend, Khabib Nurmagomedov knocked out Max Holloway in what proved to be a fascinating test event.<\/p>\n
As part of the Legionfarm NFT launch, Khabib and Holloway – who were meant to square off way back at UFC 223 – went toe to toe on the Metaverse platform. Khabib played the role of Apollo Creed with “Blessed” portraying the great Ivan Drago.<\/p>\n
