Everytime Khabib answers the questions about fighters, stupid media tries to create a beef between him/her and Khabib

[@ss2k483]

Poor Khabib even said that he likes Max, but the media don't mention that part.

@@ss2k483 I wouldn't say poor Khabib. He prob laughs at those media vermin trying to twist things. Max knows the game too. You can tell most fighters don't respect the media, don't look forward to interviews, answering the same old generic questions over and over again. Western media in particular are so shallow
