After looking at a good angle I don't think any of the people who "assaulted" Conor deserve to be punished with the exception of red shirt. Does anyone know who he was?

I am pretty sure the initial black shirt wearing dude that got into it with Conor on the fence was Abubakar Nurmagomedov who didn't really do anything wrong since Conor hit him first. The second guy in black that jumped the fence was Zubaira Tukhugov and the red shirt is an unknown?

I don't think Tukhugov really did much wrong either. Nothing compared to Chiesa/Lee or Jones/Cormier. If he gets black balled because of it I will be pretty disappointed.

edit: Identity of red shirt has been revealed https://www.instagram.com/juraze/?hl=en

So his name is Emiragaev Esedulla and he apparently is a legendary Sambo and MMA coach who is the tutor of basically every Dagestani fighter.

Islam Makachev I guess. He's the one truly fucked in this situation. Everyone will be fine. Khabib will get a few months of suspension and a fine but that's it. Makachev won't be fighting at USA again.

What makes you say that it was Makhachev? He seemed way bigger than Makhachev? Was he named by someone already?

It's not Makhachev, it's Esed can't_remember_his_surname. I think he is like a manager or something.

Also, there is video of Tukhugov where he says that he slapped McGregor and that Mcgregor didn't hit him despite people saying otherwise. In video that I saw they then repeat multiple times video from audience in which it looks and sounds like McGregor did land a punch on Tukhugov (but not on his face, it seems).
 
Yeah I just did some real video snooping and Makhachev seems to be in the clear. He is there but he is neither of these two guys. I think that he is the dude that goes flying off into the crowd chasing after Khabib but slips and gets fucked up.
 
conor hit the black shirt guy first. but he's still going to shipped back for jumping up onto the cage and instigating.

but yeah red shirt is taking the first flight back to dagestan.

I am pretty sure the person in this video is Islam Makhachev.

If it's not then it's Tukhugov who miraculously got back up to jump in.
 
Red shirt was Islam Makhachev, 16-1 LW.

Other guy was Zubaira Tukhugov.
 
conor climbed the fence and punched the guy in the black shirt he then gets held back. another guy in the black shirt gets in there and conor says something to him. the guy in the red shirt jumps the fence and lands behind conor. the second guy in the black shirt runs around all the people to get to mcgregor and they both throw punches. the guy in the red behind conor hits conor.

they're all fucking idiots.

I am certain that red shirt isn't Makhachev. You can see Islam at 20 seconds into this video celebrating next to Tukhugov. They are wearing the same clothes but you can tell them apart by their beards. Islam was dressed in the same cornerman attire that Tukhugov was wearing. The red shirt guy was someone else. Probably who old mate above said.

Good thing its not Islam, because it would be a shame if he was cut over this.
 
The only person in the melee that could possibly be Makhachev is the guy who goes flying from around the side of the cage but I actually think that was Tukhugov. It would seem like Makhachev somehow actually just didn't even get involved at all and just stayed in his corner like a sensible human being?

That's not how it went down. Conor was already in a tangle with black shirt before the red shirt ernesto hoost jumps him from behind.
 
Both of those guys have ruined there careers, was looking forward to Artem vs Tukhugov too.
 
I do believe all the answers exist in this Tweet and following comments including the identity of Mr. Red Shirt (yes it is some random mate of Khabib's named Esed)

This would indicate to me that Makhachev will escape without any sanctions. I did however see that Tukhugov came back after the red shirt guy got pulled off and went after Conor pretty violently so if anyone is gonna get scapegoated over this it will definitely be him.

Tukhugov vs. Danis in Bellator anyone?

I don't think Islam is gonna get in trouble when the evidence is analysed. Tukhugov probably will though.
