Businessman Ali Abdelaziz provoked Conor McGregor and challenged the Irishman to fight one of his clients, Justin gaethje. The agent made the latest attack on his Twitter account, last Wednesday (17). Ali was one of those involved in the widespread confusion caused after the fight between Conor and Khabib at UFC 229, in October last year.

“Hey, 'quit machine', are you challenged to fight Justin gaethje. Will you have the courage to fight or are you still saddened by the loss to the 'Eagle' (Khabib's nickname). Justin will take you to another level in the sport”, teased Ali.

This is not the first time that Abdelaziz has been involved in confusion between fighters. At the beginning of March, Ali was accused of trying to attack the welterweight fighter (up to 77kg.) Colby covington in a casino, after UFC 235. Colby has a personal feud with another of Ali's clients, the current welterweight champion, Kamaru Usman.

UFC president Dana White has already publicly stated that he does not approve of the businessman's style when trying to promote fights and even called the Egyptian an 'idiot'.

Justin's last fight was against Edson Barboza, when the North American surprised the Brazilian with a devastating knockout in the first round, in March, at UFC Philadelphia.

Currently, Gaethje occupies fifth place in the lightweight division (up to 70,3kg), while Conor is in third place. The category, whose linear champion is the Russian Khabib Nurmagomedov met, last weekend, the interim belt holder, Dustin poirier, who beat the Hawaiian Max Holloway in a fantastic fight in UFC 236.
