The in-ring saga of Conor McGregor vs Khabib Nurmagomedov might have ended six years ago but the bad blood that arose in the tenuous run-up to the record-breaking UFC 229 event is still afresh. As videos of Russian authorities conducting a raid on Khabib's training facility in Dagestan have emerged, the Mystic Mac has come to the scene to remind what he had warned back in the day. During a pre-event presser of UFC 229, McGregor alleged Khabib of having connections with terrorists. Moreover, he also called one of Khabib's trainers of being a "terrorist's rat". The emergence of videos has made McGregor reiterate his claims.

Conor McGregor calls Khabib Nurmagomedov a ‘terrorist’ accuses him of cheating
Through a couple of long social media posts, Conor McGregor has vented on Khabib Nurmagomedov, alleging him of cheating the testing norms in UFC. According to McGregor, whenever a tester shows up at Nurmagomedov's gym they hold him hostage and hand him a random clean sample of any fighter rather than the sample of the fighter who is booked to fight. He also mentioned that there is also a video (not released yet) which showcases Khabib carrying out destruction with a bat.
“In the terrorists gym when a tester showed up they would hold him hostage and give a random clean persons urine vs the fighters they were looking to test. All will come out now. When this comes down on top of them watch what surfaces. There is a video of Khabib walking into a premise full of people and smashing it up entirely with a bat , threatening all those inside. All will come out.”
Conor McGregor says he should have postponed the UFC 229 fight against Khabib Nurmagomedov
The Notorious also had a few words to spare on his fight with Khabib and revealed that he got injured ahead of the fight and should have deferred it much like the call he made before the UFC 303 fight against Michael Chandler.
I fought this little bitch made rat with a full broken foot. I should have postponed like I done this time. For what did I give this little cousin f***** any advantage for. He shit himself on that bus and showed his true chicken heart. Bitch made spoilt brat. Now you are F*****! When you die I celebrate!"
