Conor McGregor lost to Dustin Poirier in the trilogy fight at UFC 264. It was a must-win fight for both the fighters, as a lot was on the line. A lot of trash talk and personal shots were fired during the build-up, therefore losing was out of the window for both the athletes. After ‘The Notorious’ suffered a fracture on his left leg and lost the bout via doctor stoppage. He faced a lot of criticism from fans and fellow UFC fighters for crossing the line.

One old rival that took his shot on the Irishman was Khabib Nurmagomedov. After the fight, ‘The Eagle’ showed appreciation for Dustin Poirier and took a dig at ‘The Notorious’. Khabib Nurmagomedov wrote, “Good always defeats evil. Very happy for @DustinPoirier I hope you will get the belt end of the year.”

This tweet took some time to catch the eye of McGregor. But when it did, the Irishman showed why he is considered as the most ruthless trash talker in the UFC.

Conor McGregor fired back at ‘The Eagle’ by commenting on Khabib’s father late Abdulmanap Nurmagomedov. McGregor tweeted “Covid is good and father is bad?”

Conor McGregor deletes the tweet

The tweet has been removed from McGregor’s official Twitter account. But the tweet has already spread like a fire and has done the job that it was intended for. Abdulmanap Nurmagomedov was suffering from covid-19 and passed away at the age of 57 on July 2020 in Moscow. He played a major role in the MMA journey of his son, Khabib Nurmagomedov.

Abdulmanap Nurmagomedov served as a mentor and a trainer of many Dagestani fighters. After his death, ‘The Eagle’ fought his last battle against Justin Gaethje and retired undefeated. Khabib Nurmagomedov fulfilled his father’s dream and now follows in his footsteps of guiding young combatants to achieve their dreams.
