When has Cowboy ever talked trash to hype up a fight, though? He doesn't seem like the type, and he actually hates it when guys do it to him. (Conor and Nate for example)
When Conor says something I take it with a grain of salt...
When Cowboy says something like this it seems like its coming from the heart.
And I actually like Cowboy, I think he's a cool ass dude, entertaining fighter and I'm sure he has no ill intentions behind his words. I think what he is saying is due to ignorance and being misguided and not due to hatred towards Dagestanis.
I think he is just a bit ignorant and if he actually got a chance to visit Dagestan or hang out with some people from Dagestan he would change his opinion. Not to mention he has plenty of fans in Dagestan.
Hunting, working with animals, living on farms, shooting guns and combat sports is basically what Dagestan is about. Cowboy would love it there lol.
