“Better Punch His Face”- Khabib Nurmagomedov Shows Dana White His Blunt Reality Concerning Controversial Venture

It looks like the string of doubts concerning Dana White’s Power Slap League won’t stop enlarging. The Power Slap League has long been the target of detractors who have contested its legitimacy as a sport and expressed worries about how it affects the health and safety of players. Nonetheless, Dana White, the mastermind behind the league and head of the UFC, remains unwavering in his staunch support.

Amidst the critical analysis by numerous UFC faces, the name of undefeated UFC icon Khabib Nurmagomedov popped into the picture since he recently had his say about the league. And through yet another YouTube interview, his ideas were once again made public.

Punching or slapping? – Khabib Nurmagomedov had a response

While getting featured in a renowned business podcast known as the PBD podcast, Khabib Nurmagomedov shed light on his thoughts about the league. The conversation began when its host, Patrick Bet-David, started it by asking Nurmagomedov about the league. Nurmagomedov, however, didn’t sugarcoat the areas where he disagreed with the idea.

He said, “I saw cover I said but I don’t follow this. Because in our mentality like slap it is not good. It is better to punch face.” After hearing his response, David right away asked if the 34-year-old preferred punching or slapping. In response to this, ‘The Eagle’ said, “No! No ! Dont slap nobody. Like slap is not good. You cannot slap men. Because like how you gonna slap men, its not good.”

Additionally, Nurmagomedov clarified the basis for his beliefs. He said, “I don’t know for America it’s okay, I don’t know like for me it is not okay to slap. Even if I am gonna have chance I am never gonna slap people. Better punch his face. This is different mentality.” He further agreed that slapping anyone could be disrespectful, saying, ” Because like slap to the face is like very disrespectful.”

Without a doubt, Khabib Nurmagomedov firmly disagreed with the contentious idea of the Power Slap League. For a renowned UFC fighter to criticize Dana White’s idea, though, was not uncommon. In fact, there was another esteemed heavyweight figure who openly criticized the league. But who was this individual?

The disbelief in the eyes of Khabib Nurmagomedov and who?

An interview from the past featured Derrick Lewis, who then established a historical record at UFC 291. The conversation began with renowned model and host Nina Marie Daniele, who asked Lewis about the League.

Well, concerning the wicked concept, Lewis laid it straight and said, “It Couldn’t be me (with chuckles). I couldn’t sit up there unless my slap was met and look at everyone and say, Yeah, I am good. Hell no! It couldn’t be me. They are taking too long to try to get their link back, so it couldn’t be me. I wouldn’t be professional enough to do that.”

Lewis, though, made it apparent in his words that he didn’t like the concept of that league. He disagreed with the league’s idea since he claimed he wasn’t professional enough to accept that strategy. In fact, Nurmagomedov’s statements also made it apparent that he was not the only one who seemed unconvinced by the Power Slap League. With so many disagreeing faces, where will the league go?
