Although his return is yet to get a final nod from the MMA authorities, UFC’s new signing in Hasbulla Magomedov has already issued a warning for the Irishman.
The 20-year-old young sensation, who reportedly maintains a close relationship with Conor McGregor’s foe Khabib Nurmagomedov has now opened up about the UFC star.
In his interview, Hasbulla opened up on meeting The Notorious. The Irishman had earlier trolled the young star for his short stature in a series of tweets. Although, t he string of tweets were later removed from The Notorious’ account, they went viral with Hasbulla also reading them.
The 20-year-old who was born with a form of dwarfism has now opened up on this. “He’s not like a fighter for me, I don’t respect him as a fighter”, said Hasbulla. “If I meet him, I will cause some problems for him”, he added further revealing that he is not sure of what he’ll do to him.
When asked further of how’ll he’ll respond to him, Harsbulla quoted, “I’m not gonna talk with him and if I see that he wants something, I’ll dismiss him”.
