Khabib Nurmagomedov Responds To NSAC Decision And Conor’s Tweet

The current UFC Lightweight Champion, Khabib Nurmagomedov hasn’t been doing himself any favours. While his recent comments about why he attacked Dillon Danis left the world scratching their heads, the recent NSAC hearing, where the five-member panel suspended Khabib for nine months (six months if he does PSA) and slapped him with a $500,000 fine should’ve been seen as an easy let off.

This considering the fact that Khabib jumped the cage, leapt into the fans’ area and attacked someone that was not even a UFC fighter!

The commission had also fined Conor McGregor $50,000 and slapped him with a six-month suspension. Conor then took to social media to thank NSAC, and taunt Nurmagomedov and his teammates.

I am thankful for the Nevada athletic commissions fair assessment and handling of the brawl incident.
It was not my intention to land the final blow of the night on my opponent’s blood relative. It’s just how it played out.
I look forward to competing again soon.
Thank you all.

Straight left hand inside the attackers jab.
He attempted to use the big security guard that’s in all the movies as cover, but I could smell him a mile away and landed flush down the pipe.

Unlike Conor McGregor, who uncharacteristically took the high road, Nurmagomedov fired shots at the NSAC, and McGregor himself on social media.
