Promoter Kamil Gadjiev said the publication of a video depicting the conflict Khabib Nurmagomedova With Conor McGregor after the fight, could be a warm-up for a possible fight between the Irishman and Islam Makhachev .
Earlier, the UFC channel published a video of the fight between Khabib Nurmagomedov and Conor McGregor, which took place on October 6, 2018, where you can hear how, after the fight was stopped, Nurmagomedov spits on his opponent and obscenely insults the fighter from Ireland. The fight took place in Las Vegas and became Nurmagomedov’s first defense for the lightweight belt.
— Have you watched the video of the fight between Conor and Khabib with inter-noise, where we hear Khabib swearing?
– No, I only saw a screenshot where Khabib spat on him and said something in the street language, as I understand it. Well, it was a war: of people, ideologies, lifestyles. That’s exactly the main thing. Why was this fight different? Because it’s a completely different approach to life. It was the case during the fight between Mineev and Ismailov, but it’s much less the case today. But Khabib looked at it as if it were the street. And so, I think, he couldn’t waste this time.
— Why do you think the UFC released this moment the day after Conor’s birthday?
“Either the UFC is not counting on Conor anymore, or there is another fight that is canceled. Or the second option: they could thus stir up the fight against Islam Makhachev. Or the UFC is going through a crisis of ideas. And you just have to make noise. There are no good fights, let’s make a good scandal. Immediately a discussion, a topic. We remembered this fight when we rewatched it.
Basically, Dana White said, “Guys, this happened, and you decide what you think about it.” After all, in this video, from our position, he buries Conor, and from the position of many other people, he buries Khabib, who should not have taken the oath. For us Russians, or for the Brazilians, if someone spat, he is, so to speak, on horseback, and the one who was spat on is under the horse. And in a society, another, more tolerant, we will say: “Good for you, Conor, for not responding.”
— In general, what is the attitude of Dagestanis towards Russian swear words?
– Well, it is used. So tasty. I maneuver as best I can. Sometimes, of course, it happens that I break down. But in general, I try to ignore it. Even if people swear like a machine gun. I do not consider it a taboo. Moreover, sometimes guys who live in the Central Federal District: in the Tver, Belgorod and Bryansk regions, generally use swear words to connect words. They swear all the time. And you can’t even recycle them. In Dagestan, naturally, less. But in Dagestan, the Russian language generally sounds a little different, “the correspondent reports, reporting Gadzhiev’s words.
