LAS VEGAS – If former interim titleholder Tony Ferguson wants to call himself the champ, Khabib Nurmagomedov has no problem with that. “When you fight like this, high-level fight, you have to believe you’re the champ, nobody can beat you,” Nurmagomedov said during Thursday’s press conference in advance of UFC 229. “It’s OK. I’m OK about this.” Nurmagomedov, the current and official UFC lightweight champion wasn’t as OK, though, with UFC President Dana White asking for the former two-division champ Conor McGregor ’s belts before a face-off with Nurmagomedov in last month’s intense UFC 229 press conference in New York. “I’m not OK about this, because Dana already know where is Conor belts,” Nurmagomedov said
