Former UFC lightweight champion Khabib Nurmagomedov has publicly condemned his former rival Conor McGregor for his criminal actions.
Recently, a court in Dublin found McGregor guilty in a civil lawsuit related to an accusation of raping a woman in December 2018. As a result, the Irish fighter is required to pay 250,000 euros in compensation. Following this, a fundraising campaign began online to cover "legal fees for the victims of Conor McGregor."
Nurmagomedov reacted to the initiative:

Good job, guys, you have my full support. This guy deserve punishment
Khabib fought McGregor in October 2018 at UFC 229, where he won by submission in the fourth round. Khabib boasts a perfect record in mixed martial arts with 29 wins and no losses, while McGregor has 22 victories and six defeats.
