“We’re all brothers. We’re all Muslim brothers here. We all come from the same bloodline. And at the end of the day, Khamzat, he’s young. He’s new to the sport. He’s a good kid, man. He’s a good guy. I know Khamzat very well and at the end of the day a lot of people took an insult to it,” said Abdelaziz to Aaron from TSN.

“It took him [Khamzat] three months to apologize about it. I respect him so much because fighters have so much ego. But he was gonna do the right thing. Khabib is like an older brother to him. We all have this kind of ranking among us. And he came out and he right the wrong.”
