“He Has Too Much…”: Hasbulla Fires Shot at Conor McGregor While Defending Khabib Nurmagomedov

Hasbulla Magomedov, a 21-year-old Russian superstar, appears to have reignited his feud with former UFC champion Conor McGregor. Hasbulla used to produce call-out videos for top UFC fighters in his early days. Furthermore, he brilliantly imitated UFC Hall of Famer Khabib Nurmagomedov, which increased his popularity and gave him the moniker ‘Mini Khabib.’ He also has a close relationship with Nurmagomedov and his squad.

For the same reason, Hasbulla has often feuded with Conor McGregor on his social media accounts. Previously, when they exchanged words on Twitter, ‘The Notorious’ went extreme and even took personal jabs at Hasbulla.

Now, in a show of unrelenting support for Khabib Nurmagomedov, the Russian social media sensation has boldly challenged McGregor, stating that The Irishman is afraid to fight.

Hasbulla Magomedov has close ties to Team Khabib and is frequently seen supporting them at their events. Furthermore, his international fame landed him a lucrative marketing contract with the world’s biggest MMA company, UFC.

Since then, the 21-year-old has grown in popularity in the MMA scene. On Twitter, he recently shared a video of himself wearing UFC gloves and a t-shirt. He also donned Nurmagomedov’s trademark, Papakha, in the video. Along with the video, Hasbulla wrote in the caption:

“Me when anyone tries to talk shit about Khabib.”

 

In response to his tweet, a Twitter user recommended that Hasbulla vs. McGregor take place in the Pentagon. Hasbulla responded to this tweet by claiming that Conor McGregor is terrified of the bout.

“He has too much fear in his heart.”

However, this is not new. Hasbulla is frequently active on social media and often touches on hot topics. He previously commented on the feud between Elon Musk and Mark Zuckerberg too.

A few weeks ago, Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg and Tesla founder Elon Musk startled the MMA community by agreeing to fight inside a cage. Following their announcement, a number of noteworthy personalities began to weigh in on this potential clash.

Hasbulla also joined the bracket by tweeting a video. Hasbulla demonstrated his boxing talents on a heavy bag in the video and indicated that he would assist Musk train.

However, it was clear that the Russian superstar was just having fun. Furthermore, there has been no official word about the fight between Musk and Zuckerberg.
