Khabib Nurmagomedov was far less cordial in his response to Conor McGregor’s recent tirade than Paul Hughes was.

Hughes received a lot of plaudits for his performance last weekend, but recent leaked footage prompted fellow Irishman McGregor to launch a scathing attack on 'Big News'

McGregor, prior to his defeat by Khabib in 2018, attacked the Russian’s Muslim faith. Immediately after their lightweight title fight, in which Khabib retained the gold that McGregor previously held, the “Eagle” jumped over the cage to attack members of the Irishman’s team.
