Barclays Center in Brooklyn, New York; the scene of both the magic and the mayhem of UFC 223 fight week. (Photo by Brandon Magnus/Zuffa LLC)
Fight week went so off the rails that is seems like a lifetime ago that the main event of UFC 223 was supposed to be Tony Ferguson and Khabib Nurmagomedov. Fourth time was not the charm. (Photo by Jeff Bottari/Zuffa LLC)
Michael Chiesa interacts with media during the UFC 223 Ultimate Media Day. Just minutes later he's find himself picking glass out of his forehead and his fight vs Anthony Pettis sadly scratched. (Photo by Jeff Bottari/Zuffa LLC)
Anthony Pettis walks didn't end up fighting at UFC 223, but he did weigh in and was considered as an alternate replacement for the main event. (Photo by Jeff Bottari/Zuffa LLC)
Like his teammate Anthony Pettis, The Irish Dragon Paul Felder didn't end up fighting at UFC 223, but was considered as a main event replacement. (Photo by Jeff Bottari/Zuffa LLC)
Brandon Moreno's bout with Ray Borg was yet another casualty of the McGregor bus fiasco, which occurred shortly after this photo was taken. (Photo by Jeff Bottari/Zuffa LLC)

Everywhere you look, there are more and more Khabib fans, like this gang waiting for the UFC 223 Press Conference at the Music Hall of Williamsburg in Brooklyn. (Photo by Jeff Bottari/Zuffa LLC)
Throughout the numerous opponent changes and the McGregor melee, Khabib Nurmagomedov remained unflappable during UFC 223 fight week. (Photo by Brandon Magnus/Zuffa LLC)
Max Holloway during the UFC 223 Open Workouts, during the few days that he (and the rest of the world) thought he as competing for the lightweight title. (Photo by Jeff Bottari/Zuffa LLC)
We'll be forever left to wonder what would've happened in a title fight between Khabib and Max Holloway. Or will we? (Photo by Jeff Bottari/Zuffa LLC)
All stoicism and emotional control, Rose Namajunas poses with her hard-earned strap during the UFC 223 Press Conference . (Photo by Brandon Magnus/Zuffa LLC)
After much scrambling, New York's own Al Iaquinta agreed to step into the title fight to save the main event of UFC 223. (Photo by Jeff Bottari/Zuffa LLC)

Devin Clark carried some of that confidence on the scale into his bout against Mike Rodriguez, and left Brooklyn with the via unanimous decision victory. (Photo by Jeff Bottari/Zuffa LLC)
By the time the Bec Rawlings-Ashlee Evans-Smith bout began, the craziness of the proceeding week began to melt away, and a feeling of relief and exhilaration took its place. UFC 223 was happening. (Photo by Jeff Bottari/Zuffa LLC)
Ashlee Evans-Smith's size advantage seemed to play a huge part in her unanimous decision victory over Bec Rawlings during the prelims. (Photo by Jeff Bottari/Zuffa LLC)
Olivier Aubin-Mercier celebrated the first fight of his new UFC contract with a TKO victory over Evan Dunham just 53 seconds into the first round. (Photo by Jeff Bottari/Zuffa LLC)
Olivier Aubin-Mercier promised to shave his polarizing mustache if he won a performance bonus, which he did. We'll have to settle for this photo to bask in its former glory. (Photo by Jeff Bottari/Zuffa LLC)
Felice Herrig prepares to face Karolina Kowalkiewicz in the prelim headliner. (Photo by Brandon Magnus/Zuffa LLC)
That 'other' Polish strawweight contender, Karolina Kowalkiewicz, makes her UFC 223 entrance. (Photo by Brandon Magnus/Zuffa LLC/Zuffa LLC via Getty Images)
Felice Herrig talks to the hand(s). (Photo by Jeff Bottari/Zuffa LLC)
A hard fought battle on the way to a split decision between (R-L) Kowalkiewicz and Herrig. (Photo by Jeff Bottari/Zuffa LLC)
She was scared that she had left it in the judges' hands, but Karolina Kowalkiewicz's striking clinic was enough to seize the split decision. (Photo by Jeff Bottari/Zuffa LLC)
An emotional moment for those who knew him as it was announced that beloved UFC TV producer Bruce Connal, who passed away unexpectedly earlier in the year, will be inducted into the 2018 class of the UFC Hall of Fame. (Photo by Jeff Bottari/Zuffa LLC)
It was a long night for veteran Joe Lauzon at UFC 223, encountering a busy and motivated Chris Gruetzemacher. (Photo by Jeff Bottari/Zuffa LLC)
So brutal was Chris Gruetzemacher's onslaught, that the effort resulted in the rare (and commendable) corner stoppage from Joe Lauzon's team. (Photo by Jeff Bottari/Zuffa LLC)
Three UFC fights and three bonus checks for Russian phenom Zabit Magomedsharipov following his Fight of the Night with Kyle Bochniak. (Photo by Jeff Bottari/Zuffa LLC)
There was never any doubt that the fight belonged to Zabit, but Kyle Bochniak's amazing, hard-headed counter-effort was enough to win him a legion of new fans, including UFC legend Forrest Griffin. (Photo by Brandon Magnus/Zuffa LLC)
If it weren't for the efforts of Zabit and Bochniak earlier in the evening, the fight of the night might have instead gone to the war between Renato Moicano (R-L) and Calvin Kattar. (Photo by Jeff Bottari/Zuffa LLC)
The fight stayed on its feet for the duration, and it was the striking prowess of Brazil's Renato Moicano that gave him the unanimous decision over Calvin Kattar. It was Kattar's first UFC loss. (Photo by Brandon Magnus/Zuffa LLC)
Joanna Jedrzejczyk prepares to meet the fighter that took away her belt a mere five months earlier: strawweight champ Rose Namajunas. (Photo by Brandon Magnus/Zuffa LLC)
Focused, serious, determined, iron-willed; all words that are synonyms of Joanna Jedrzejczyk. (Photo by Brandon Magnus/Zuffa LLC)
Both fighters exhibited growth throughout the rematch. Many, including UFC president Dana White, scored the bout 2-2 heading into the final round. (Photo by Jeff Bottari/Zuffa LLC)
For a fighter so well known for her ground game, Rose Namajunas' boxing and striking were the story of the fight. (Photo by Brandon Magnus/Zuffa LLC)
For all the tense stare-downs and pre-fight buildup, sportsmanship abouned at the conclusion of the co-main between Rose Namajunas and Joanna Jedrzejczy. (Photo by Jeff Bottari/Zuffa LLC)
The performance by both fighters more than delivered on the promise of a rematch between a champion and a No. 1 contender. (Photo by Brandon Magnus/Zuffa LLC)
Rose Namajunas got her first successful title defense in the city and against the opponent she first captured it from just a few months earlier. (Photo by Brandon Magnus/Zuffa LLC)
Jedrzejczyk called their first meeting a "fluke." The evolution of Namajunas proved it wasn't. (Photo by Jeff Bottari/Zuffa LLC)
Khabib Nurmagomedov prepare to make the walk. (Photo by Mike Roach/Zuffa LLC)
Local New York favorite Al Iaquinta thought he'd be fighting Paul Felder less than 48 hours earlier. his effort against Khabib Nurmagomedov was not only commendable, but some argued it exposed holes in the Russian's game. (Photo by Jeff Bottari/Zuffa LLC)
Iaquinta was valiant, but his the fight belonged to Khabib, just as his previous 25 outings did. (Photo by Jeff Bottari/Zuffa LLC)
Khabib Nurmagomedov pauses to absorb what just happened. (Photo by Brandon Magnus/Zuffa LLC)
After years of injuries, cancelled fights and other issues standing in his way, it finally happened. Khabib was now the undisputed lightweight champ. (Photo by Jeff Bottari/Zuffa LLC)
With a professional record of 26-0, and each of those wins coming in completely dominant fashion, rarely has a belt looked more natural on a new champion than it did on Khabib Nurmagomedov at UFC 223. (Photo by Jeff Bottari/Zuffa LLC)
