#1--Khabib held onto the choke a little longer and had to be pried off.
#2--he was screaming in Conor's face, who was sitting on the ground, and looks to have spit in his face
There's almost zero chance that Dillon was just talking smack every time those two were within listening distance. I didn't hear about any such shouting from the peanut gallery by Joe and broadcasting team. Plus, him shouting over top Conor's coaches doesn't help his guy any bit.
And Khabib finished Conor across the ring from Conor's corner, and I highly doubt anybody could hear anything being yelled right after the submission. So I don't think it was anything quite verbal Dillon said that would pop Khabib off.
My theory is either Dillon flipped him off for the long choke + spit-->Khabib going full eagle on them. For a BJJ guy like Dillon, the long choke is probably one of the most egregious things to do.
OR
Khabib was incensed at Dillon calling himself a better Khabib and wanted to show him what's up.
Either way, Khabib's actions were pretty idiotic and I think ppl need to lay off Dillon because it's most likely he was sticking up for his friend who just got extra emasculated with the long choke/spit.
I think there was another incident with a UFC fighter spitting on another, but was much more serious being blood, which led to him being cut. Khabib's obviousy wasn't as bad, but I think spitting/intentionally spewing your bodily fluid at another is a huge no no.
