Hasbulla Magomedov, the young Russian wonder, gained huge fame in the MMA world thanks to his viral call-out videos aimed at elite athletes. His enthralling duel with Abdu Rozik boosted his fame even more. Also, his social media presence and connection with Team Khabib resulted in a multi-year contract with the elite UFC. Despite his promising career, the 20-year-old prodigy became embroiled in a legal squabble. According to recent reports, Hasbulla Magomedov and his associates were arrested in Dagestan earlier this week on allegations of violating traffic restrictions.

However, Hasbulla aka ‘Mini Khabib’ afterward revealed on his official Twitter account that he had been given bail and placed under house arrest. Despite the fiasco, the Russian sensation couldn’t stop himself from joking about it.

Hasbulla ‘jokes’ about his arrest

The news of Hasbulla’s arrest took social media by storm and memes about it started to circulate too. Hasbulla is known for his funny persona. Thus, even he chimed in to poke fun at his recent arrest.

‘Mini Khabib’ posted a video of the remote-controlled car running on the roads. It is not rocket science to understand that the 20-year-old was pointing at his small size. In the caption, Hasbulla wrote:

“The video of Hasbulla’s traffic violation has been released.”

 

Thus, it is safe to say that the Russian social media star seems unfazed by the arrest. He not only made light of the situation, but he also capitalized on his arrest by selling merchandise with his mugshot.

Hasbulla is friends with MMA stars such as Khabib Nurmagomedov, Islam Makhachev, and others. His fame, though, extends beyond the MMA world. Following his arrest, he elicited a response from notorious social media figure Tristan Tate, Andrew Tate’s younger brother.

Hasbulla Magomedov and his companions got themselves into trouble while celebrating a friend’s wedding. Reports from Red Corner MMA shed light on their reckless driving and disruptive behavior, which annoys other drivers.

After a day in detention, the flamboyant Russian social media celebrity came to Twitter to announce his release on bail, although with the condition of being placed under home arrest.

After learning about it, Tristan Tate took to his official Twitter account to respond to Hasbulla. He said:

“I feel you bro.”

Tristan Tate and his brother Andrew Tate, having faced their fair share of legal troubles, had spent an arduous two months in prison following their arrest the previous year.

Although the Tates were finally released from prison in March 2023, they were placed under house arrest as the investigation into their case proceeded. Thus, it’s easy to see why Tristan connected so strongly with Hasbulla’s present circumstance.

What are your thoughts on Tristan’s response to Hasbulla? What do you guys think about Hasbulla joking about his arrest?
