“After such comments, I’m ready to head the Conor lovers club in our country”

Former UFC champion Conor McGregor has left Moscow for several days, but his visit still excites all fans of mixed martial arts. In the Russian capital, the Irishman managed to get into several scandals, announced his return to the octagon in January 2020 and did everything in order to get a rematch with Khabib Nurmagomedov.

However, a native of Dagestan himself has not commented on this topic recently. But this was done by Oleg Taktarov, the first UFC champion from Russia in history. A former fighter who repeatedly fought with the Nurmagomedov family and was even ready to fight with Abdulmanap Nurmagomedov, advised Khabib to get a rematch with Conor in Ireland and did not miss another opportunity to stab the current champion.

“I would give a rematch in Dublin, in Ireland. As once agreed to a rematch in Brazilian Sao Paulo, where people were killed in the evening on the street. But it's me. I was never afraid of anything and nobody, but on the contrary, I was looking for danger. I have such genetics, ”Taktarov wrote on his Instagram page.

Your opinion? I would give a rematch in Dublin, Ireland. As I once gave a rematch in Brazil in Sao Paolo, where people were killed on the street in the evening. But it's me. I never was afraid of anything and nobody, but on the contrary looked for danger. I have such genetics. At great-grandmother (Konoplev), the husband and all three sons died in the war. Grandfather, a 13-year-old boy, made shells for Katyusha in the cold workshop and raised his spirits from his friends, the boys, who fell from the Father's hunger for standing up for his friend’s sister and sending him to heavy knockout 6 scum from the elite, planted. There they tried to break 50 thieves jackals with stones, but they couldn’t. I have good genetics. My genetics came from courageous and honest people. Therefore, I understand and accept, if I see that someone was scared, not everyone has such genes. PS Translation: Does he represent Russia? I do not think he represents Russia. Never in my life had I seen that he represented Russia. Have you ever seen him raise the Russian flag? How do I raise the flag of Ireland with pride? I have never seen this in my life.

The former athlete also spoke about the difficult history of his family and the courage of his ancestors.

“At the great-grandmother, the husband and all three sons died in the war. Grandfather, a 13-year-old boy, made shells for Katyushas in a cold workshop and raised the spirit of his friends, boys who fell from hunger. Father for having interceded for his friend’s sister and sent six scum from the elite to heavy knockout was put in prison. There, 50 thieves jackals with stones tried to break, but could not. I have good genetics. I got my genetics from brave and honest people. Therefore, I understand and accept, if I see that someone was scared, - not everyone has such genes, ”Taktarov added.

Of course, such a post could not leave indifferent the numerous fans of Nurmagomedov, who in the comments began to insult Taktarov. He himself in response sent several people to the black list for "using foul language." The ex-champion did not stop there and announced his desire to head the McGregor fan club in Russia.

“So many idiots! I was indifferent. After such comments, I’m ready to head the Conor fan club in our country, ”wrote Taktarov.

“The satisfaction of the Almighty should be a priority in all matters”

As for Khabib himself, he did not begin to respond to Taktarov, but on his Instagram page posted a philosophical post about the Almighty. Moreover, in the photo he holds his champion belt.

“The only thing you will never achieve is people's satisfaction. The priority in all matters and undertakings should be the satisfaction of the Almighty, ”the athlete wrote.

Meanwhile, a young striker of Krasnodar Magomed-Shapi Suleymanov spoke about communication with a famous countryman in social networks. He also compared Nurmagomedov to Barcelona striker Lionel Messi.

“Habib himself said that football is the number one sport in the world. So Messi is cooler than him. But I will be equal to the fellow countryman. The last time he congratulated him on his victory over Dustin Porrier. Then he marked me when I scored Arsenal. After that he did it all the time, and my number of subscribers increased, ”Suleymanov said in an interview with the KraSava YouTube channel.

“We talked with Conor, he expressed a desire to train me”

Somewhat calmed down after an eventful trip to Moscow and McGregor himself. In recent days, only photos with his family can be found in his account on social networks. But after only a few months, Conor, according to him, is waiting for the fight in the UFC. However, with whom the Irishman will meet, is still unknown. In such a situation, veteran Donald "Cowboy" Cerrone, who suffered two defeats in a row, decided to ask for a duel with McGregor.

“I think this time everything will happen. I really believe that. Conor is serious about returning. Conor vs. Cowboy - everyone would like to see this fight. It will be a great match. I do not want to belittle his dignity, he beats very powerfully. It will be fun. So, Conor, come on, sign the contract already! Let's do it, ”TMZ Sports quotes Cerrone.

However, McGregor does not seem to mind coaching. In any case, it is reported that the former absolute world champion in boxing, Tyson Fury, is not averse to trying himself in mixed martial arts and intends to take several lessons from Conor.

“You can see Tyson Fury's MMA debut this year. We talked with Conor, he expressed a desire to train me, it suits me. McGregor simply said, “When you're ready, let's get started.” Come to Dublin and start training. ” Can not wait. I am going to accept his offer, ”Fury quotes Sky Sports.

In the meantime, the Irish fans can only wait for the news and support their favorite in every possible way. In particular, at the beginning of the week the fans were amused by the story of a young fan of Conor, who decided to dress up as an idol for Halloween. To do this, he put on a false beard, drew tattoos on his body and made an artificial champion belt. The image was liked by fans of mixed martial arts, and in the MacGregor fan group this post collected more than 11 thousand likes.
