Howler Head Whiskey, which is the UFC’s official flavored whiskey, hosted a meet and greet. It included big names in the UFC game like Joanna Jedrzejczyk, Yair Rodriguez, Cody Garbrandt, and Marvin Vettori. It happened in Las Vegas and each of these fighters had a specific time for their appearance.

Interestingly, the athletes were not the only famous people in attendance. Retired UFC fighter Khabib Nurmagomedov’s fan Nelly Gonzalez, who is also known as ‘Grandma Khabib’, was also in present. Polish fighter Jedrzejczyk posted a beautiful picture with her on Instagram.

She wrote in the caption, “Loved seeing so many of you at the @howlerheadwhiskey meet & greet today!🤗 Thank you for the love and support—I appreciate you and hope to see you at the fights tomorrow!❤️ 🥃 I’m not a big whiskey fan, but Howler (and Grandma Khabib!) stole my heart.🥰 For those who asked: I’m coming back soon. And with a vengeance. 🥷”.

‘Grandma Khabib’ commented, “The pleasure was mine can’t wait to watch your next fight. You have so much heart congrats on your NFT & all your latest achievements”.

Gonzalez is a staple in the MMA community and on social media, she describes herself as “Khabib Fan Número Uno”. She shot to fame because of her picture with ‘The Eagle‘. Over the years, she has met several other UFC fighters like Islam Makhachev, Israel Adesanya, Nick Diaz, and many more. So after meeting Jedrzejczyk, she has yet another feather in her hat.
