Hasbulla Magomedov has found support in Alexander Volkanovski amidst his ongoing verbal tussle on Twitter against Conor McGregor, as the reigning UFC Featherweight champ has issued an open warning to the Irishman.
Leave my mate alone: Alexander Volkanovski backs Hasbulla against Conor McGregor
Hasbulla is known for his dislike of Conor McGregor. From saying that he wants to “punish” McGregor, to naming his chicken after the Irish fighter, ‘Mini Khabib’ has never stopped his grudges against the former two-division UFC champ.
However, the long one-sided clash recently turned sour as McGregor lashed out at Hasbulla in a series of now-deleted tweets.
“How much to get him on the volley? I’d love to boot that little gimp hasbulla over a goal post,” read McGregor’s tweets,“I’m gonna make it my mission to score a 3 pointer with him one day, hon the guard. Little smelly inbred.”
In his response, Hasbulla took to his official Twitter handle, taking shots at McGregor getting put to sleep in the cage against Dustin Poirier, saying that his treats were worse than McGregor’s Proper Twelve Irish Whisky and even issued a faceoff in Abu Dhabi.
“You won’t though. Your threats are worse than your bottle shelf whiskey. Maybe should have made your mission not to fall asleep in the octagon. I don’t follow bums… didn’t know someone was running their mouth. @ me next time Conor McGregor. At least one of us maintained an undefeated record Conor McGregor Hasbulla 1 Conor 0. I have my ufc contract now, if @TheNotoriousMMA is really a man… see me in Abu Dhabi. Got smashed by Khabib already. Guess his money from Mayweather ran out and he needs more attention,” read Hasbulla’s responses.
In the meantime, the Dagestani social media icon’s newfound friendship with Alexander Volkanovski has aided him in his Twitter tussle against ‘The Notorious’. Soon after McGregor’s tweets went viral, ‘The Great’ warned the former double champ and even told him to leave his buddy alone.
“You’ll have to go through me first, Leave my mate alone @TheNotoriousMMA” tweeted Volkanovski.
