Abdulmanap Nurmagomedov attempted to resolve the conflict between his son Khabib and Conor McGregor, but unfortunately, it remained unresolved.
A touching video highlighting Abdulmanap Nurmagomedov’s noble act towards Conor McGregor has resurfaced on social media, celebrating Abdulmanap as a figure of great dignity and honor. The viral video on Reddit captures his parting thoughts on McGregor before his untimely death.
The interview clip, taken before Abdulmanap succumbed to COVID complications in 2020, reveals Khabib’s father extending an invitation to McGregor to visit their family in Dagestan, according to GiveMeSport. He expressed forgiveness towards McGregor for the disparaging remarks directed at him and Khabib during their intense buildup to their UFC 229 bout.
In the lead-up to their match, McGregor was known for his provocative taunts targeting Khabib and his heritage, including disrespectful comments about their religion and culture.
Despite the deep-seated animosity and overstepped boundaries, Abdulmanap’s final statement about McGregor was marked by elegance, reflecting his character’s depth.
Nevertheless, McGregor did not accept the invitation, as evidenced by his reaction to Abdulmanap’s demise on social media in 2020, which was far from respectful. McGregor’s controversial tweet: “COVID is good and father is evil?” sparked widespread condemnation in the MMA community.
Yet, Abdulmanap’s message in the interview remains a powerful testament to his ethos, stating: “It’s all in the past, we should not stop there, life goes on. Our religion should show grace not only in words, but also in deeds. If he comes, he will be our dear guest.”
