Khabib Nurmagomedov
The MMA media is all over the recent beef between Conor McGregor and Khabib Nurmagomedov. And now, video of a backstage altercation between the two has surfaced.
Conor McGregor and Khabib have been going through a back and forth verbal battle on social media this week, with McGregor even threatening Khabib’s bear in the process. However, this new war of words isn’t the first incident between the two.
Right before Conor McGregor fought for the UFC lightweight title at UFC 205, the UFC lightweight duo had a real life altercation in the UFC backstage area.
That replay is in the player above.
This week’s drama is just the latest, and many want these two to fight!
Khabib Nurmagomedov poked the bear at the UFC 219 post-fight press conference, stating, “When I talked about at the beginning of this week that I can fight with Tony [Ferguson] and after a couple hours, if the UFC gives me a rest, I can fight with Conor [McGregor]. People think I am trash-talking.”
This prompted Conor McGregor to hit Twitter and fire back at the undefeated Russian fighter.
That Dagestani was dog shit the other night you’s are all nuts. Game full of sloppy bums asking to be slept. Pay me my worth and Kings back.
