Conor McGregor says ‘Abdulmanap is doing tumbles in his grave’ Following Usman Nurmagomedov’s Failed Drug Test

Conor McGregor never passes on the opportunity to slam a member of the Nurmagomedov family.

The Irishman’s dislike for anyone sharing the iconic last name stems from his intense rivalry with UFC Hall of Famer and former lightweight world champion Khabib Nurmagomedov. Though his beef has always been with ‘The Eagle’ directly, McGregor is non-discriminatory when it comes to kicking a member of the legendary fight family while they’re down.

Recently, Khabib Nurmagomedov’s cousin and current Bellator lightweight titleholder Usman Nurmagomedov reportedly failed a drug test following his fight with Brent Primus at the promotion’s 300th event last month.
