Nurmagomedov’s Bold Statement is Outrageous

Nurmagomedov, who is preparing for his next fight against Corey Sandhagen in Abu Dhabi, is backing O’Malley as an unhappy reign after Nurmagomedov’s exposure, in which he expressed contempt for O’Malley’s attitude and actions about an interview with Daniel Cormier on his YouTube channel yesterday
When asked about O’Malley’s treatment, Nurmagomedov did not hesitate. “I think we, and I, are in two different worlds,” Nurmagomedov said. He criticized O’Malley’s approach, saying, “It’s a little… I don’t know what, different. Uh, guys, I’m embarrassed to say we have the same champion.” According to Nurmagomedov, O’Malley’s “clown” persona is the exact opposite of what he believes a true leader should represent.
Supporters’ Responses to Nurmagomedov’s Criticism are Mixed

O’Malley’s Record and Future Forecast
