What happened after the UFC 229 main event?

As soon as he choked out McGregor in the fourth round, Khabib then jumped out of the Octagon into the crowd.

When in the crowd he appeared to try and attack McGregor's team-mate Danis.

And while all of this was happening three members of Khabib's team jumped into the Octagon and punched McGregor twice.

UFC president Dana White then refused to hand Khabib his belt, and the fighter left the ring escorted by police.

White confirmed in an interview backstage that three of Khabib's team have been arrested and take to jail.

Police have visited McGregor in his changing room.

White said: "Three of Khabib’s guys have been arrested and are on the way to jail now.

"I know if we put the belt on him (Khabib) in the octagon they’ll be things thrown. I just said let’s just try and get him out of here.

"Both men made it clear that the rivalry would not be over after the fight, but I definitely didn’t see Khabib jumping over the fence after the fight.

"Daniel Cormier and Luke Rockhold were great in diffusing things."
