Conor McGregor remains one of the UFC’s biggest yet most controversial superstars. While his career skyrocketed him to fame, he’s been no stranger to controversies, both in business and in his personal life. Recently, he’s back in the spotlight following accusations of sexual assault in a Dublin hotel, which has reached the city’s High Court. Responding to the news, Belal Muhammad shared an old tweet from Khabib Nurmagomedov that mocked McGregor.
It’s well known that the animosity between Team Khabib and McGregor runs deep. Recently, UFC champion Muhammad seized the chance to take another jab at McGregor. He shared a 2019 post from Khabib, where the former champ took a direct shot at ‘The Notorious,’ referring to him as a “rap**t.”
For those unfamiliar, this is the same tweet Khabib Nurmagomedov posted back when the accusations against Conor McGregor first surfaced. Now, years later, as the case officially heads to court, it’s not Khabib but Belal Muhammad who’s taking the shot at McGregor, reigniting the long-running rivalry between the two. However, till now McGregor hasn’t replied to it yet.
Conor McGregor Exchanged Word With Belal Muhammad
UFC Welterweight champion Belal Muhammad has been the talk of the week after news broke that he pulled out of his upcoming fight with Shavkat Rakhmonov. McGregor wasted no time responding, calling out Muhammad for previously criticizing UFC champions who had to reschedule their bouts due to injury. Now that the same situation has hit him, McGregor found it fitting to point out the irony, calling it “glorious” to see it happen to Muhammad.
He said, “You lambasted UFC world champions multiple times on having to reschedule their bouts through injury, and now it has come down on you like a bomb from the sky. It is glorious to see.”
