Ali Abdelaziz continued his social media brawl with Conor McGregor and brought up some bear wrestling
Former UFC champion Conor McGregor and Khabib Nurmagomedov have a huge rivalry, even though there is a bit of respect between them.
That was on show when Khabib’s father, Abdulmanap, passed away earlier in the year. But it seems they are back at each other’s throats.
This could be due to the fact that the future of the UFC Lightweight title is up in the air. Dana White hasn’t confirmed that Khabib has retired and hopes to call him back.
McGregor, for his part, could be back in the race for the title should he defeat Dustin Poirier in his next fight.
While McGregor could get another crack at Khabib, the Russian’s manager, Ali Abdelaziz, took a shot at the Irishman.
Time for some teddy bear wrestling?
One of the legendary tales regarding Khabib is him fighting bears when he was nine. This was part of his training thanks to his father and Abdelaziz brought this up to hit out at McGregor.
The Egyptian got hold of an old photo of McGregor, possibly, holding a teddy bear. Next to that, Abdelaziz pasted a picture of Khabib wrestling a bear and he seemed to enjoy putting his rival down.
Abdelaziz and McGregor have fought several times on social media and this was another low blow he handed to the Irishman.
It is to be seen if we ever get to see McGregor vs Khabib again, but their rivalry just doesn’t seem to be ending.
Abdelaziz also likes to stir the pot a lot and calling out McGregor seems to be a task for the week for the MMA agent.
