“Am I the only one that sees this stuff for what it is or what’s the craic ? Not a scratch, man. Embarrassing!”, the 34-year-old wrote.

Islam Makhachev refused to call out Conor McGregor

Recently, Makhachev gave a cold shoulder to Conor McGregor’s return to the UFC.

“He is always in the Twitter because people almost forget him, you know”, said Makhachev.

The new lightweight champion then said, “I don’t believe he’s gonna come back. Every fighters try to call him after. I’m not gonna call him after the fight, because I want to fight with real fighters who deserve the title.”

Makhachev is indeed Khabib Nurmagomedov’s prodigy. His grappling skills are far superior. With a record of 23-1-0, he is set to make his name stand out in history. The Lightweight champion is destined to cross paths with ‘The Notorious’. When that happens, all eyes would be on the Octagon.
