UFC superstar Conor McGregor accused upcoming opponent Khabib Nurmagomedov and the fighter’s father of having connections to controversial Chechen leader Ramzan Kadyrov. Now it would appear that a member of the Chechen government has come forward with a statement concerning the matter.
Ramzan Kadyrov it the founder of Akhmat Fight Club and has come under criticism by several for his alleged human rights violations and alleged kidnapping of potentially homosexual individuals within the Chechen Republic.

As reported by Bloody Elbow’s Karim Zidan, Chechnya’s Minister of Press & National Policy Dzhambulat Umarov referred to Conor McGregor as a “Mexican c*ck” that behaves like an “outrageous clown.”
