Afghan fans of former UFC lightweight champion Khabib Nurmagomedov lashed out at the fighter after he refused to discuss the current situation in Afghanistan. Responding to a journalist's question, the Russian said, "What have you got to do with Afghanistan? Nothing? Neither do I."
Khabib posted a photo with a Formula 1 driver Nikita Mazepin overnight. Afghan fans left many angry messages in the comments of the post. Here are some of the remarks:
th3yhate.ali: "Money changes people the same way it changed you."
bi1a14: "You were a champion for the people of Afghanistan, they supported you and applauded your every triumph. But when the time came when you should be with the Afghans as a Muslim brother, you didn't even say a few words about us?"
shabir_esakhil: "You have lost your Afghan fans. Now you are nothing to them."
khushal_gurbaz: "I'm going to unsubscribe from you. At least you could have shown sympathy for the Afghan people when a journalist asked you a question about Afghanistan."
omid_bnd_1381: "People in Afghanistan are Muslim. Khabib is not a Muslim, he is an animal."
aqilislamkhil: "You have disappointed millions of people in Afghanistan. Long live humanity, long live Afghanistan."
frisht_nh: "There is no respect for you anymore. Long live Afghanistan."
mohajer.pjr: "After your opinions, views and answer to a journalist about Afghanistan, you have lost respect."
tayfun14 575: "Khabib, you really disappointed us. We Afghans didn't go to work to watch your fight when you fought and prayed for you to get an easy win. And now when we need help, you cannot even say something about our people? Aren't muslims your brothers? You should be ashamed of yourself! But don't forget that Allah sees everything."
mujtaba_ahmadi_afg: "Khabib, all the Afghans were rooting for you, supporting you. You have a lot of fans in Afghanistan, and you said why do you need Afghanistan, like you have nothing to do."
kingmudaser1: "You disappointed the whole country.
