Khabib replied to Macron’s statement on social media with the following message (translated through Google translate):
Khabib Nurmagomedov unhappy with Emmanuel Macron’s comments
Khabib Nurmagomedov announced his retirement after a dominant performance against Justin Gaethje at UFC 254. The Russian retired with a 29-0 record and will undoubtedly go down as one of the best in history.

Khabib, who lost his father and coach Abdulmanap Nurmagomedov earlier in the year, didn’t want to carry on fighting without his mentor in his corner. However, Dana White has tried his best to convince the 32-year-old to come back for another fight.
Khabib is one of the biggest names in the sport, probably second only to Conor McGregor. A potential second fight against the Irishman or a super-fight against Georges St-Pierre could be huge for the promotion.
