"Sean and I are two different people. He likes to be a laughingstock. He and I are different and I'm ashamed that the champion of our division is Sean O'Malley. A man has to be different - he has to be a good example for the younger generation and he can't act like a clown.
Even Sean Strickland tells him he looks like a clown. Is the money really worth it? No, a man has to be strong. A man should be a gentleman, not a mousing and dancing clown working for tiktok. That's an occupation for women. Besides, we know what bothers the UFC - they don't want to give it strong fighters with good wrestling," Nurmagomedov said on Daniel Cormier's podcast.
