The friction between Khabib Nurmagomedov and Dillon Danis is not a recent development. According to an article by JOE.co.uk, this tension has its roots in their teenage years. This goes back to when Danis had a disagreement with Khabib when he was just a teenager, a dispute that originated during their shared training days. Fast forward to UFC 205, and Danis, who was part of McGregor?s team, felt the hostile gaze of Khabib’s entourage.

According to reports, Danis allegedly made racist comments towards Khabib during the UFC 229 event. The MMA star has since denied such allegations. However, the mere accusation was enough to make Khabib leap off the Octagon and directly confront Danis. This led to an all-out brawl involving both teams, resulting in suspensions and fines for key players.
