HASBULLA has hit back at Conor McGregor, claiming he has “lost respect” for him as a fighter.
The Irishman launched a Twitter tirade against the social media sensation earlier this year.
In a since deleted tweet, McGregor wrote: “Iâd love to boot that little g**p Hasbulla over a goal post. How much to get him on the volley?
“Iâm gonna make it my mission to score a 3 pointer with him one day.”
He also called the 3ft 4in star a “smelly little inbred”.
After recently signing with the UFC, Hasbulla responded to McGregor’s comments.
Speaking to the Full Send podcast, the Russian said: “Yeah, I saw all of his Tweets of me.
“But, he is not my opponent, he can just talk. Heâs not like a fighter for me, I donât respect him as a fighter.”
He then fired a warning at McGregor, continuing: “And if I meet him I will cause some problems for him.
“I donât know yet [what he will do]. But, I will definitely do something.”

When McGregor first aimed inflammatory comments his way, Hasbulla responded: “Hey uncle Dana White and UFC please make it happen.
“Let me eat this chicken Conor McGregor. I’m hungry, Iâll smash him with my mountain spirit.
“My brother Khabib [Nurmagomedov] smashed him and all his team, now is my time to rise!
“I donât follow bums… I didnât know someone was running their mouth, @ me next time.”
When asked whether McGregor has reached out since the UFC signed Hasbulla, White told will get his ass whooped if he runs into him on the streets.”
On what plans he has for Hasbulla, White also said: “Yes, we did sign Hasbulla. What he’s going to end up doing remains to be seen.”
