Has Conor McGregor reached the point of no return? The UFC megastar once again set social media on fire, reigniting his long-standing rivalry with Khabib Nurmagomedov in explosive fashion. In a heated outburst, ‘The Notorious’ took aim at ‘The Eagle’ and his family, making inflammatory remarks that stirred up the ‘Dagestan vs. Ireland’ rivalry in combat sports. He wrote: “Show yo wife ni**a. Show yo kids ni**a. Cousin f*****n motherf***n hidin motherf***er. Show us you and your cousins kids together because we have kids here in Ireland that wanna smoke them in competition..”
But Conor McGregor wasn’t done. In the same message, he attempted to lure Khabib Nurmagomedov back into the Octagon, offering a massive payday: “Fight me and make $100 million.” So far, neither ‘The Eagle’ nor his team have responded, but the Irishman’s latest antics didn’t sit well with MMA fighter-turned-boxer Anthony Taylor. Weighing in on the controversy, Taylor urged ‘The Notorious’ to “Get Help”, warning that his once-legendary status is now crumbling.
“You lost the respect of everyone in the world—even your wife. BRO, YOU LOST! Get over it. The better man won that day. Nobody wants to work with you. You are a high-functioning drug addict.”

Meanwhile, Conor McGregor’s long-standing feud with Khabib Nurmagomedov took another dramatic turn this week after young Irish MMA star Paul Hughes found himself caught in the crossfire. After the PFL: Road to Dubai main event, Hughes, who was once a supporter of the Irishman, was recorded telling ‘The Eagle’, “I am not like the other guy. I am my own man.” This statement, a clear reference to ‘The Notorious’, did not sit well with the former UFC champion, who wasted no time in lashing out at Hughes.

In response, Khabib Nurmagomedov quickly came to Hughes’ defense, delivering a scathing remark aimed at Conor McGregor: “You are a real Irishman, Paul Hughes, and not a r-pist and d–g addict like this b–tard.” As expected, this heated exchange pushed ‘The Notorious’ into a full-blown rage, prompting yet another vicious tirade against ‘The Eagle’ and his family. Now, just hours after McGregor’s verbal assault, ‘Team Khabib’ has fired back with a response. Let’s dive into what they had to say.
‘Team Khabib’ confronted Conor McGregor with the ugly “reality”
A well-known saying in combat sports about Conor McGregor goes: “Khabib breaks his soul, Dustin breaks his leg.” Once an unstoppable force, the Irishman hasn’t been the same since facing Khabib Nurmagomedov at UFC 229 in 2018. After that, he endured back-to-back losses to Dustin Poirier, with the third fight at UFC 264 ending dramatically when ‘The Notorious’ suffered a broken leg. His career has never truly recovered since that moment.

Now, Conor McGregor’s rivalry with ‘The Eagle’ has flared up again, with Khabib’s manager, Ali Abdelaziz, reminding ‘The Notorious’ of his most crushing defeat: “You’re the farthest thing from being a man. Khabib will haunt you for the rest of your life. In reality, you’re just a fan. He took everything from you. You’re so desperate for attention, you don’t know what to do, you b-tch.”
And if that wasn’t enough, internet sensation Hasbulla, the 4ft 3inch star from Dagestan, also took aim at Conor McGregor, saying, “Khabib took your soul,” before adding, “I’ll take the rest.” As the Irishman’s rivalry with ‘The Eagle’ heats up once again, the spotlight now shifts to Khabib Nurmagomedov.
