Khabib Nurmagomedov's manager Ali Abdelaziz recently responded to a tweet from Andrew Tate.
Tate is currently detained in a Romanian prison after being arrested last December on accusations that include rape and human trafficking. The self-proclaimed misogynist, who converted to Islam in recent years, claims to be observing fast for the holy month of Ramadan even inside his prison cell.
While Muslims fast from dawn to dusk during this period, Tate's prison food is provided thrice exactly within the fasting hours. 'Top G' claims to be using a plastic bag to protect his food from insects, only to have it cold after sunset. Detailing his difficulties in observing Ramadan, 'Cobra' wrote on Twitter:
"My food comes at 8am, noon and 5pm I have a plastic bag I use to try and protect the food from insects I spend my entire day destroying the flies and ants who get close to the meal In accordance w/ Ramadan When the sun goes down, I eat the stone cold food in my cell by myself"

Ali Abdelaziz, who is known to be a devout Muslim, extended his support. The Dominance MMA CEO, who manages almost a number of elite Dagestani fighters, wrote:
"Be strong, my brother 🤲🏾"
What are the charges on Andrew Tate?
Andrew Tate is under investigation for allegedly organizing a criminal group, accusations of sexual exploitation, human trafficking, and rape allegations. Meanwhile, his brother Tristan is being investigated for all of the above accusations barring rape.
Two Romanian women, Luana Radu (former police officer) and Georgiana Naghel, were recently called back into detention after being briefly allowed to leave custody for house arrest.
After initially arresting the Tate brothers for 24-hours, Romanian investigation agency DIICOT requested an extension of 24 hours which was granted by a Bucharest court. The court has since consistently granted requests for the extension of Tate's detention, turning down all appeals from 'Top G' and his team.
Meanwhile, Andrew Tate's lawyers claim that he is being detained without any official charges being pressed. They also stated that 'Top G' could be detained until June just for investigation, without any charges being pressed.
A recent appeal by Tate to change his detention to judicial control was also turned down by the court.
