“He’s the Real Deal”: Mario Lopez, Amanda Cerny, & Millions Thrilled as Mark Wahlberg Meets His “New Best Friend”

The 20-year-old internet sensation Hasbulla Magomedov created even more headlines after his UFC signing in October last year. The Russian is plagued with a human growth hormone deficiency disease, which led him to have stunted height. Hasbulla’s illness may also be considered a form of dwarfism. Post his UFC signing, the Dagestani was also spotted in a number of PPVs as a member of Team Khabib. His online feud with the UFC icon, Conor McGregor, also created a lot of buzz in the MMA world.

Hasbulla is also known for his mischievous nature among UFC fans. A lot of other celebrities often approach him for photographs and selfies; however, he doesn’t oblige everyone. Recently, a similar incident occurred when the noted Hollywood star, Mark Wahlberg, caught a glimpse of him at the pre-final press conference of the Power Slap League.

Wahlberg also posted the video of his brief interaction with the Russian on his Instagram, which expectedly garnered numerous reactions from the fans.

The ‘Unchartered’ actor put up a caption along with his post, which read, “My new best friend didn’t want to hit me, he wanted a hug Shout out to @hasbulla.hushetskiy @danawhite @powerslap”.

The involvement of Hasbulla, who also boasted 6.7M Instagram followers besides Wahlberg’s 21.1M, only meant that fans were going to flood the comments section of the post. Well, it was exactly what happened.
