Following the fight, Khabib Nurmagomedov took to Twitter and congratulated ‘Diamond’. Meanwhile, he tagged McGregor as ‘evil, while Dustin Poirier as ‘good’, to shed some more hatred on his former rival.

The former double champ further deleted those tweets, but Khabib Nurmagomedov didn’t miss out to reach on the scenario during his interview at HotBoxin Podcast.

The lightweight G.O.A.T said, “You know only evil can talk about your father, like wife, kids, religions. Like if you are normal like, human you are never gonna talk about these stuff you know.”
