Former two-weight UFC champion and current commentator and analyst Daniel Cormier explained why Khabib Nurmagomedov insulted McGregor after the fight.

"I'm close with Khabib. And when Conor started saying bad things about his father, I knew it wasn't just going to end. The one thing you can't say to Dagestanis is bad things about their fathers. In the culture of Dagestan, they respect fathers so much that if you say bad things about one father, you incur the wrath of the whole village.

So Conor wasn't just insulting Khabib and his father. He was insulting the father of all the Dagestani fighters, because Abdulmanap put his whole soul into these guys. I don't understand why McGregor didn't realize he went too far," Cormier said on the Good Guy/Bad Guy YouTube channel.
