Khabib Nurmagomedov Mocks Conor McGregor’s Rival for Wearing High Heels, Something Robert Downey Jr & Brad Pitt Are Notorious For

An unlikely rivalry surfaced on the internet that could probably never end up in an MMA bout. The two names involve former dual weight UFC champions, Conor McGregor and Henry Cejudo. McGregor fights at a much higher weight division, while the latter has only competed in the smallest weight divisions. This disparity will keep the two forever away from matching up, aside from Twitter wars that don’t carry any rules. 

Taking a page from McGregor’s book, Khabib ‘The Eagle’ Nurmagomedov also mocked Cejudo but in a jovial way. The duo enjoys a great relationship as the former UFC champion offers assistance to Nurmagomedov’s MMA promotion Eagle FC by taking up the role of analyst and commentator. The Olympian stands at 5 ft 4inches tall and has been often spotted making use of lifts.
