One of the most famous rivalries in MMA history has bubbled back to the surface over the past few days with arch enemies Conor McGregor and Khabib Nurmagomedov going after each other on social media unlike ever before. From the beginning, the heat between ex-UFC champ McGregor (21-4 MMA, 9-2 UFC) and reigning titleholder Nurmagomedov (27-0 MMA, 11-0 UFC) has been far more about personal disdain than competitive superiority. That was evident once again in their recent social media exchanges . Both McGregor and Nurmagomedov went deeply personal at each other, so much so that UFC President Dana White released a statement claiming the promotion would reach out to the athletes in attempt to help restore civility.
