Conor McGregor continues the trash talk with Khabib Nurmagomedov.
So it appears that this beef won’t be dying down any time soon as Conor McGregor continues to throw barbs at Khabib Nurmagomedov on social media.
It’s been a busy last couple of weeks for Conor McGregor as the former UFC Lightweight and Featherweight champion has been facing everything from a potential retirement to criminal allegations. He’s even found some time to poke fun at his old rival/sparring partner, former boxing champion Paulie Malignaggi who had a confrontation with McGregor’s friend and teammate Artem Lobov.

But despite all of the that resting on his plate, Conor McGregor is still finding time to throw some trash talk Khabib Nurmagomedov’s way. McGregor took aim at the Dagestani champion and his team for alleged steroid abuse.
Wow another dagestani caught abusing steroids.
That’s 2 out of 3 in this picture busted for steroid abuse, with the most recent being busted 3 times in a row and now hit with a lifetime ban.
Excellent job @JeffNovitzkyUFC.

But it appears that McGregor has completely leaped over the line with a Tweet he posted and promptly deleted referencing and insulting Khabib’s wife.
This is perhaps the most insulting and disrespectful barb Conor McGregor has thrown at Khabib Nurmagomedov, essentially insulted not only the UFC Lightweight champion’s wife, but once again his religion.
It’s safe to say that Conor McGregor has taken things way too far and could find himself paying dearly for the comments. Ali Abdelaziz, manager of Khabib Nurmagomedov, weighed in on the recent McGregor trash talk.
Talking shit, this guy is insulting someone’s wife and making fun of her religion and belief. He doesn’t realize he’s insulting 1.5 billon Muslims. Religion and family is a no no. You’re fucked Connor, let’s see what the media is going to say now. He’s a rapist, and a bitch.
