In addition to paying Khabib a hefty sum, 50 Cent offered to contact the fighter's teammate, Zubaira Tukhugov. 'Warrior' was one of the athletes who attacked Conor McGregor during the confusion at UFC 229. As a result, franchise president Dana White promised that none of the fighters who attacked the Irishman would step foot in the organization's octagon again.
Rapper 50 Cent believes that the UFC gave the Irishman milder treatment when he attacked the bus taking athletes to Media Day in April this year.
“I think what the UFC did to Khabib (Nurmagomedov) is wrong. They didn't do the same with (Conor) McGregor. I will pay $2 million dollars tonight if he fights for me in Bellator. I will negotiate his contract later with Dana (White). UFC isn't the only game in town. Zubaira (Tukhugov) is also welcome”, proposed 50 cent.
Khabib soon responded to the rapper: “Just send me the location. If you want to see where real men are born. I invite you to go to Dagestan. And when I go to the USA I will let you know. Thank you for your support, you are a real man.”
In September, the rapper and the franchise signed licensing and advertising contracts for the musician's champagne and sports accessories brands. In addition to offering US$1 million to the winner of the Bellator welterweight GP.
