“Humbled” Khabib Responds to Pettis’ Elbow Injury

Lightweights Anthony Pettis and Khabib Nurmagomedov have been sidelined with injuries they sustained during their training camps. Nurmagomedov was preparing for his fight against Donald Cerrone at “UFC 187” and Pettis was training for Myles Jury at “UFC on FOX 16”.

After Nurmagomedov fell to injury, Pettis was quick to jump on social media and get revenge on Khabib for pouring salt in the wound. Pettis explained his actions by saying Nurmagomedov should act more humble and tone it down with the trash talking while fighters are injured.

It looks like Khabib took his advice. Check out his tweet below— the challenge has been issued!

Wish you fast recovery. I know how hard it is. I believe our fight is inevitable @Showtimepettis @ufc @Reebok pic.twitter.com/TULlRdLBfs
