Khabib brands McGregor 'alcoholic,' Irishman labels UFC champ 'a p*ssy' after Dana White comments
UFC lightweight ruler Khabib Nurmagomedov labeled Conor McGregor “an alcoholic” after the Irishman lashed out over comments made by UFC boss Dana White that Nurmagomedov was now “calling the shots” over future fights.
McGregor unleashed a furious social media rant on Saturday after comments by UFC boss White that “Khabib is the man now.”
“Conor isn’t the man anymore, so Khabib gets to sit back and call the shots,” White said in Boston this week.

That prompted McGregor to lash out on Twitter over September's UFC 242 event in Abu Dhabi, where Khabib defended his lightweight title against Dustin Poirier.
“Who’s not the man? Your man had that marquee event did he? More like an event in a marquee. A tent in the fucking sand it was,” McGregor fumed. “Keep spoofing to your self horse. Jock strap sniffer championships.”

Khabib has now replied in his own inimitable style, pitching back a barb at his former rival and branding him an "alky."
“This is a fiasco alky [alcoholic],” Nurmagomedov wrote in Russian, adding a smiling emoji.
