The UFC icon made the offer to comedian Bob Menery if he can arrange a meeting with the NBA legend
Khabib Nurmagomedov is a legend in his own right but is willing to pay an unusual price to meet a man of even bigger sporting stature.
Arriving in Miami for a first US show with his MMA promotion Eagle FC, Khabib was asked on the sidelines of a press event by American comedian and social media personality Bob Menery what he was willing to offer if a meeting could be arranged with the NBA GOAT.
“How many sheep do I get for Michael Jordan?” Menery was heard asking the Dagestani star in a clip shared with the comedian’s 3 million Instagram followers.
“Three sheep. If you make me and Michael Jordan meet, I’m going to give you three sheep,” Khabib replied.
“Well get your three sheep ready,” Menery responded.
“And we’re going to give him three dogs,” Khabib added, pointing to nearby comedian Kyle Forgeard.
