Hasbulla Magomedov jokingly hit BT Sport's Adam Catterall in a funny altercation at UFC 280. Dan Hardy, also a BT Sport employee, hilariously provided a breakdown of Magomedov's move.

Hardy drew the viewers' attention to Magomedov's gait from the moment he entered the room. Comparing the internet sensation's walk to Conor McGregor's iconic 'billionaire strut', 'The Outlaw' said on YouTube:

"I mean, we talk about McGregor's billi strut, but I don't know if I've seen confidence like that in a new UFC prospect ever before."

Hardy also opined that Magomedov intentionally walked into the interview with an unplugged microphone. This prompted Catterall to bend down to connect the microphone to the XLR cable, putting him in Magomedov's range.

'The Outlaw' further noted that Magomedov then cleverly switched hands and passed the microphone with his left hand, freeing his power hand. With Catterall distracted and both his hands occupied, 'Hasbulla' landed a clean right hand, flooring the reporter:

"He passes the microphone left hand to left hand. Very very clever move here. So he's got Adam's right hand preoccupied with the XLR cable, Adam left hand is now preoccupied with the microphone. He's taken the bait... Right on the cheek of Adam Catterall, vulnerable, distracted, big right hand, bang!"

Dana White cautions Conor McGregor about Hasbulla

Hasbulla Magomedov has gotten into several altercations with various UFC stars, but all in good humor. However, his feud with Conor McGregor surprisingly seems authentic.

Without any instigation, the UFC superstar has taken serious digs at the teenage sensation from Dagestan, labeling him a "gimp" and a "smelly inbred" in now deleted tweets.

Magomedov responded by challenging the Irishman to refrain from taking down his controversial tweets. Most recently, after Hasbulla got signed into the UFC, 'Notorious' hilariously compared him to former bantamweight champ Petr Yan.

However, UFC president Dana White has cautioned McGregor about feuding with Magomedov. The UFC head honcho hilariously claimed that the former UFC double champion will likely get a thrashing from Magomedov in a potential street altercation.

The 53-year-old said on the My Mom's Basement with Robbie Fox Podcast:

"Conor's gonna f*** around and get his a** whooped if he runs into him [Hasbulla] out in the streets."
