Famed MMA veteran Oleg Taktarov talked about how fans Khabib Nurmagomedov reacted to his words against the former UFC lightweight champion.
Today Nurmagomedov teased his former rival Conor McGregor, suggesting that the Irishman should be awarded a medal because he was "also beaten by Dagestani". Such an unfortunate joke Khabib reacted to the news that the head of the Investigative Committee of the Russian Federation Alexander Bastrykin awarded the Medal of Valour and Courage to Roman Kovalev, who was beaten by three natives of Dagestan in the Moscow subway.
Taktarov later refused to comment on Khabib's statement and sent him packing, for which he faced a large wave of heckling on Instagram.
"As of today, it's not that a person for me, one nation has ceased to exist for me today. Affected my mother again... All you guys. We're done. That's it."
Rostov, November 6, come on. Come again, I'm telling you. Admission is free. You're touching my mother and my father again. We go into the room and stay there. Who comes out, comes out," Taktarov said in a video posted to Instagram.
