UFC 264: Khabib Nurmagomedov mocks Conor McGregor after leg break – ‘good always defeats evil’
- Former UFC lightweight champ appears to revel in McGregor’s defeat to Dustin Poirier by doctor stoppage
- ‘Very happy for Dustin, I hope you will get the belt end of the year,’ Khabib adds
Khabib Nurmagomedov was quick to revel in Conor McGregor’s defeat to Dustin Poirier by doctor stoppage in Saturday night’s UFC 264 main event.
“Good always defeats evil,” tweeted former lightweight champ Nurmagomedov (29-0), who submitted McGregor in October 2018 and Poirier a year later.
“Very happy for @DustinPoirier I hope you will get the belt end of the year,” added the Dagestan native, who retired last September, spurning a chance for a potential money-spinning rematch with his former heated rival McGregor.
Nurmagomedov also retweeted his former American Kickboxing Academy teammate Daniel Cormier, after the former UFC heavyweight and light heavyweight champ wrote: “Crazy to think that at the end of the weigh in Conor said he would be taken out on a stretcher. And now Conor gets taken out on a stretcher. Man this game we play is so crazy!!!! Hats off to the Diamond of Lafayette!!”
Former champ and No 7-ranked lightweight Rafael Dos Anjos also appeared to revel in McGregor’s misery.
