Khabib Nurmagomedov Fires Back At Conor McGregor With Hilarious Tweets

Khabib Nurmagomedov has taken to Twitter to fire back at Conor McGregor following his social media tirade on Monday.

The Irishman responded to Nurmagomedov's devastating UFC 219 performance who returned to the famed Octagon after battling with injuries.

The lightweight contender extended his perfect professional record to 25-0 by battering Edson Barboza for three straight rounds.

But his dominant outing didn't impress McGregor.

McGregor posted: "That Dagestani was dog shit the other night you's are all nuts. Game full of sloppy bums asking to be slept. Pay me my worth and Kings back."

Nurmagomedov replied with just a few words: "Shut up #TapMashine" accompanied with a chicken emoji.

However, the Dagestani phenom had some more social media ammunition.

He then shared three pictures including two hilarious photo-shops.

1) Nurmagomedov on a bear chasing McGregor. Standard.

2) Taking the piss out of his gear.

3) Then trolling him after claiming he'd fight Nurmagomedov on his home soil.

McGregor also uploaded a few typically outrageous Tweets.
