"He bombed seven Muslim countries" - Khabib Nurmagomedov's manager slams Barack Obama, reacts to Elon Musk's take on "calculated lie"
Khabib Nurmagomedov's manager Ali Abdelaziz has voiced strong criticism of Barack Obama following the former United States president's recent remarks regarding Jewish and Muslim voters during a campaign rally for Democratic Party nominee Kamala Harris.
Speaking at the Milwaukee, Wisconsin rally, Obama emphasized the importance of religious minority voters in the upcoming election and warned them about Republican nominee Donald Trump. He highlighted Trump's track record, noting controversial policies that allegedly restricted travel from several Muslim-majority countries.
Elon Musk described the Democrats' narrative as a "calculated lie." Abdelaziz, meanwhile, reacted to Musk's comments and argued that Obama's record contradicts his claims. He pointed out that Obama was allegedly responsible for military actions in seven Muslim-majority countries during his presidency. He took to X and wrote:
"Obama needs to stop talking about Muslims. He bombed seven Muslim countries in his presidency he’s a fake and afraid and a liar."

The prominent MMA manager recently doubled down on his support for Trump, writing:
"For all my Arab brothers & sisters, Obama & Hilary Clinton funded wars against Arabic nations at the same time. Kamala Harris & Joe Biden funded the war in Gaza, Syria, Yemen & Lebanon, instead of trying to find a solution for peace. Trump started 0 [zero]."

When Khabib Nurmagomedov's manager clapped back at Conor McGregor with a Barack Obama reference
The UFC lightweight division landscape in 2022 became complicated following UFC 274, where Charles Oliveira lost his title due to missed weight but emerged victorious against Justin Gaethje. Following the win, the Brazilian called out Conor McGregor for a potential clash. His coach also claimed that the Irishman privately texted Oliveira to fight him instead of Islam Makhachev in 2022.
With Oliveira needing a suitable opponent at the time, Khabib Nurmagomedov's manager, Ali Abdelaziz, expressed concerns about McGregor potentially entering the title picture despite his recent losing streak. Abdelaziz made a bold statement that McGregor has not won a fight since Barack Obama was president. Speaking in an interview with The Schmo, he said:
“Nobody cares about Conor McGregor. He has not won a fight since Obama was president. You know, he is just, he is popular because he is a Twitter fighter now. You know… he is an Instagram fighter. But, when the last time he fought in there and show us he like worthy enough to fight for UFC title?”
