Conor McGregor's former teammate Myles Price helping Khabib Nurmagomedov prepare for UFC 229 fight.
"I’ll be honest with you, I never really got on well with Conor within the gym because I and Conor sparred a lot," Price told the Eurobash podcast.
"I understand the hierarchy within gyms. Even here at AKA you have heated spars, but afterwards, we shake each other's hands, we talk about what we can work on and develop as training partners or as a team.
"With Conor, he’s quite narcissistic. He’ll see you as competition. He’s not very nice to be around in the gym. If you’re giving him hard spars, he won’t see you as a friend after a while."
And Price believes his former gym mate will be in for a shock on fight night.
"It’s like having a wet blanket on you in every single session," he added.
"When I jump in and do my session with Khabib, it just feels like there is no stopping him, he just keeps coming at you.
"When people commentate on his fights, they say it’s a shock when you feel what he feels like at first. I imagined what it was going to be like, but that was a whole other level of pressure.
"It’s calculated, it’s smart, it’s vigorous, it just keeps on coming at you over and over again. His stand up has gone through the roof. He’s going to have some tricks up his sleeve, that’s all I’m going to say."
