Khabib Nurmagomedov refuses to shake the hand of the female reporters – is the fault

While some on social media were understanding of the refusal of Nurmagomedov, given his religious beliefs, not everyone was so forgiving.

During a recent appearance Club ShayThe old friend and former training partner of Nurmagomedov, Daniel Cormier, spoke about this, somehow the fault of the reaction of Ishowspeed at the moment out of proportion to social media.

“The reason it became so strange was because the boy responded to the way he did that,” said Cormier. “There was a youtube that was there with them. Speed, Ishespeed. He, like a married man, should not shake the hand of another woman.”

Kate Scott treated the snub of Khabib Nurmagomedov with class

As Muslim, the religious beliefs of Nurmagomedov prevent him from shaking hands or makes physical contact with non -related women. Kate Scott was ultimately not impressed by the snub and even apologized at Nurmagomedov immediately after the meeting.

Scott was praised for dealing with the incident as a professional, but that did not stop from dozens of people online from shredding ‘the eagle’ and his observed lack of respect towards women.

“That is so disrespectful,” wrote a user. “He shook everyone’s hands except Kate. Shaming.”

“Or he must make a public apology or be banned from future events,” another added.

“Just a Russian Nazi again, he hates women,” a third said.

“Yes, fuck your religion, not a fundamental human decency,” wrote a fourth in response.
