Hasbulla takes down Alexander Volkanovski

Hasbulla is out of house arrest and all ready to rage against Volkanovski. In the new video, Volkanovski can be seen recalling their earlier meeting when the influencer smashed a burger in Volkanovski’s face. So, the last time they met, Hasbulla came out on top.

“You’s all seen that though right?” Volkanovski says into the camera. “Burger in the face, chilli in the eye that literally was burning me. Next time I’m saying, I’m gonna fix him up. I’m gonna tell him I’m gonna fix him up.”

Just as ‘The Great’ finishes speaking, the door opens and Hasbulla Magomedov walks in. The so-called boss-music plays as the two prepare for their funny little skit. Soon, the Dagestani Marvel pulls Volkanovski off his chair and starts beating him up.
