Mocking someone because of his religion rarely ends well, but don’t tell that to MMA coach John Kavanagh. Earlier this year, Khabib was returning to action and the rumors of his first opponent were swirling. Everyone wanted him to face off against Rafael dos Anjos. Khabib was interested, but because he has to fast during part of the summer for religious beliefs, the match couldn’t take place right away. Kavanagh took it as an opportunity to mock Khabib, and judging from the amount of angry responses he received, he probably won’t make that mistake again.
