Danis had reportedly shouted insults at Nurmagomedov.[189] Shortly afterwards, McGregor and Abubakar Nurmagomedov, Khabib's cousin, attempted to exit the octagon, but a scuffle broke out betwixt them after McGregor punched Abubakar, who so punched him dorsum.[190] [191] McGregor was so attacked from behind inside the octagon by two of Nurmagomedov'due south cornermen, Zubaira Tukhugov and Esed Emiragaev.[192] Tukhugov, a Chechen fighter, was scheduled to fight on 27 October 2018 at UFC Fight Night: Volkan vs. Smith against Artem Lobov, the McGregor squad member who was confronted by Nurmagomedov in April 2018. Tukhugov was removed from the card on 17 October.[193]

Nurmagomedov's payment for the fight was withheld by the Nevada Country Able-bodied Commission (NSAC) as a result, pending an investigation into his actions. He appeared at the mail service-fight interview and apologized to the NSAC, proverb he was provoked by McGregor's trash talk and the UFC 223 bus incident, adding, "Y'all cannot talk well-nigh religion. You lot cannot talk near nation. Guys, you cannot talk about these things. This is very important to me."[194] He later posted on Instagram that he had warned McGregor that he would pay for everything he had done on 6 Oct.[195] Khabib's male parent, Abdulmanap, later said he did not hold a grudge towards McGregor and invited him to Russian federation to railroad train.[196]

The NSAC filed a formal complaint against both Nurmagomedov and McGregor, and on 24 October, the NSAC voted to approve a movement to release half of Nurmagomedov's $ii million fight payout immediately. Both Nurmagomedov and McGregor received indefinite bans until an official hearing would determine the disciplinary issue of the mail-fight brawl.[197] On 29 January 2019, the NSAC announced a 9-month interruption for Nurmagomedov (retroactive to half dozen October 2018) and a $500,000 fine. He was eligible to compete again on half-dozen July 2019.[198] McGregor also received a six-month suspension and $50,000 fine, while Abubakar Nurmagomedov and Zubaira Tukhugov each received 12-month suspensions and fines of $25,000. Khabib Nurmagomedov complained about the NSAC's decisions and stated he no longer wished to compete in the state of Nevada.[199]

In August 2021, Nurmagomedov attracted controversy subsequently an EFC press conference when asked by a reporter well-nigh why he does not have ring girls at his promotion. Khabib stated that he did non have an upshot with how other promotions went about their operations, stating that they are welcome to do things notwithstanding they wish, but that he did not see a need for them in his promotion. He said that he personally saw no point to ring girls and their function of parading round cards around earlier the start of each round. Co-ordinate to him, it is a pointless do that makes him "uncomfortable". He was quoted every bit saying "Look, I don't want to offend anyone. Ring girls are the most useless people in martial arts. What is their function? You can show that information technology is the second round on the screen. Do they develop a sport? Or they help people to see that it is the 2nd circular now? What are they doing? Tell me, please."[200]
