**Khabib Nurmagomedov’s Awkward Encounter with Female Sportscaster: A Handshake Refusal**
In a shocking turn of events that has left the sports world reeling, UFC legend Khabib Nurmagomedov recently found himself in an awkward encounter with female sportscaster, Lisa “The Handshake” Henderson. The incident occurred during a post-fight interview where Khabib, known for his grappling prowess and unyielding demeanor, was caught in a moment that can only be described as a “handshake standoff.”
Witnesses report that as Henderson extended her hand for a customary handshake, Khabib stared at it as if it were a live snake. “I thought she was trying to challenge me to a grappling match,” Khabib later quipped, “I don’t shake hands with opponents. I only shake hands with my mother and my pet bear, Misha.”
Henderson, clearly taken aback, attempted to lighten the mood by saying, “Come on, Khabib! It’s just a handshake, not a submission hold!” To which Khabib replied, “In my culture, we do not shake hands with women. We hug bears instead. Much more respectful.”
The moment quickly went viral, with fans creating memes of Khabib dodging the handshake like it was a flying knee from Conor McGregor. One fan tweeted, “Khabib’s handshake refusal is the most intense thing I’ve seen since my grandma tried to give me a hug after I told her I’m vegan.”
As the dust settles on this bizarre encounter, experts are left wondering if Khabib’s next opponent will be a female sportscaster or perhaps a particularly aggressive bear. Either way, one thing is for sure: Khabib’s handshake game is as strong as his grappling—nonexistent.
