“Your Fathers Plan Is Never Complete”: Conor McGregor Claps Back at Khabib Nurmagomedov ‘Takeover’ Remarks, Wants Rematch

The rivalry between former lightweight champions Conor McGregor and Khabib Nurmagomedov is a never-ending one in the UFC. They have fought once at UFC 229. In the lead-up to the fight, there was heavy trash talk McGregor in particular left no chance to mock Nurmagomedov and destroy him mentally.

However, in the fight, Nurmagomedov got the best of McGregor. He looked pretty dominant in most of the rounds and finished the fight in the fourth round via submission. It has been over four years since the fight now, but the rivalry between the two still seems fresh.

Nurmagomedov, on the other hand, had already retired from the sport and refused to fight again. However, he still mentioned McGregor in several of his interviews.

After MMA Junkie posted the video on social media, McGregor reacted to it. He reposted the clip on his Twitter page with the caption, “I fight on! Your fathers plan is never complete because you quit and ran, brother. God bless. I’m still here if you wanna go again. But your fear of defeat means you’ve already lost. Run from it all you want. We all lose in the end. Death takes us all. I fear nothing but God.”

After retirement, Nurmagomedov took his father’s cap and is training his friends and teammates for their MMA careers. So far he has been great at it with his teammates, Islam Makhachev and Usman Nurmagomedov winning titles in UFC and Bellator, respectively. Thud, it seems Nurmagomedov will continue as a coach and not a fighter in the future too.
