“A true Chechen would never assist in a Dagestani led attack on another Chechen,” McGregor wrote. “A true Chechen would never take orders from a Dagestani man. This is treason. There is no worse than treason.”
Allegedly, Tukhugov, a Chechen fighter had insulted another Chechen fighter on Lobov’s team. Tukhugov had responded to McGregor’s post, saying that trash talk from miles away was futile. He warned McGregor of a confrontation outside of the octagon. Well, here’s a reason why McGregor deserves to be called “The Notorious”.

The chicken dance that Tukhugov planned to execute after slapping Conor didn’t really seem to suit the situation he was in, what with having received a punch that made him lose his balance.
