Conor McGregor could bid farewell to Ireland and come to the USA amidst the Nikita Hand case. After the rumors went abuzz, Islam Makhachev’s manager Ali Abdelaziz has now mocked McGregor.
'The Notorious' was found liable for assaulting Nikita Hand in a Dublin hotel in 2018. The court instructed him to cover Hand’s legal costs and pay €248,000 to the alleged victim. He hasn’t pleaded guilty to the crime and told his fans that he will appeal against the verdict.
Abdelaziz, who shares bad blood with McGregor, slammed him in a tweet, which read as:
"@TheNotoriousMMA I heard you leave Ireland because your court do you wanna sell your house?"
