Tension has been quite high between the Conor McGregor and Khabib Nurmagomedov camps as of late. Many thought that the matter would be settled inside the octagon at UFC 229 on Oct. 6.
However, Nurmagomedov attacked McGregor’s teammate Dillon Danis outside of the octagon directly after defeating “Notorious” in the fourth round of their fight. Now SBG Ireland head coach John Kavanagh has entered a Twitter exchange with Khabib Nurmagomedov and the fighter’s manager Ali Abdelaziz. Check it out below.
“@arielhelwani Jesus loves knockouts but Mohammed wasn’t a fan of summertime MMA? – Choose your religion wisely young fighters!”
