While the picture may not be the most appropriate in general, the timing couldn’t be any worse as well.
Although Nurmagomedov doesn’t live in America, there was a recently a tragic shooting in Orlando, Florida. The incident was devastating and has taken over headlines in the last few days.
Nurmagomedov’s fans have surely brought it to him on social media, expressing their disproval of the picture.
