Brazilian mixed style fighter (MMA) Rafael Dos Anjos burst into a tirade against Russian Islam Makhachev. A skirmish between athletes broke out in Twitter.
Both compete in the Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC). The 37-year-old fighter reacted to the attack from Makhachev. The Russian posted a video of a brawl between Dos Anjos and McGregor, where an Irishman insulted a Brazilian. “There were no guards around,” Makhachev wrote, hinting at Dos Anjos’ inability to stand up for himself.
In response, the former UFC champion called Makhachev an imitator of Khabib Nurmagomedov. “How many times have you fought champions? How many times have you led the card? You’re being promoted solely because of your brother. Stop mentioning me with your dirty mouth, imitator of Khabib, ”said Dos Anjos.
Makhachev has been called Nurmagomedov’s successor in the UFC more than once. The latter in particular sees his protégé as the holder of the organization’s lightweight title. Makhachev will hold the closest fight in February. Beneil Dariush will be his rival.
