UFC-ийн алдартай тулаанч Даниел Кормье Шанхай хотноо болсон тулааны дараах үйл явдлыг тайлбарлаж, Усман Нурмагомедовыг Сүн Ядонг руу халдсан гэх цуурхлыг үгүйсгэлээ.
Шанхай хотноо болсон UFC Fight Night тэмцээний оргил тулаанд Хятадын тулаанч Сүн Ядонг Орос улсын тамирчин Умар Нурмагомедовыг хүчтэй апперкот цохилтоор хүнд нокаутад оруулж ялалт байгуулсан юм. Тулаан дууссаны дараа Сүн Ядонг баярлан октагоныг тойрч гүйх үед Умар Нурмагомедовын ах Усман Нурмагомедов октагон руу орж ирсэн нь олны анхаарлыг татсан билээ. Тухайн үед Усманыг Сүн Ядонг руу тохойлдох гэж оролдсон гэх хардлага гарсан ч Даниел Кормье үүнийг эрс няцаав.
Кормьегийн хэлснээр, Усман Нурмагомедов зөвхөн хүнд нокаутад орсон төрсөн дүүдээ туслах гэж л яарсан бөгөөд Сүн Ядонг түүний зүг гүйж ирэхэд мөргөлдөхөөс сэргийлэх гэж гараа сунгасан аж. Тэрээр Усманыг ямар нэгэн байдлаар халдлага үйлдээгүй, зөвхөн ах дүүгийн сэтгэл хөдлөлөөр дүүгийнхээ хажууд очихыг хичээсэн гэдгийг онцолсон байна.
Хэдийгээр тулаанчдын багийнхан октагон руу орохыг UFC-ийн дүрэм журмаар хориглодог ч энэ удаагийн үйл явдал ноцтой зөрчилгүйгээр өндөрлөсөн байна. Усман Нурмагомедов дүрмээ зөрчиж октагонд орж ирсэн нь алдаа байсан хэдий ч түүнийг дүүгийнхээ төлөө санаа зовсон сэтгэлийг нь ойлгох хэрэгтэй гэж Кормье үзэж байна. Эмч нар Умар Нурмагомедовыг үзлэгт оруулж, талууд тайван замаар асуудлыг шийдвэрлэснээр нөхцөл байдал хурцадсангүй.

Emotions were running high after Song Yadong scored a stunning knockout over Umar Nurmagomedov in the UFC Shanghai main event on Saturday. With Nurmagomedov still laid out unconscious from the uppercut that ended his night, Song was understandably elated as he ran around the cage in celebration but that also brought him in direct contact with Nurmagomedov’s team including his brother Usman Nurmagomedov.
In real time, it appeared that perhaps Usman actually tried to hit Song with an elbow as he passed by but UFC Hall of Famer Daniel Cormier says nothing could be further from the truth.
“Usman Nurmagomedov jumped into the octagon after the fight, Khabib [Nurmagomedov] tried to stop him,” Cormier said on his YouTube channel. “Song Yadong is running in the direction of Usman. Usman reacts, like he reaches to stop him like they were going to make contact together.
“He did not elbow him. Let’s stop making conspiracy theories out there, people. He did not elbow him. He did not attack Song Yadong.”
For his part, Song never broke stride and continued his celebration and he eventually approached Khabib and the rest of the team to show his respect after the fight.
While Cormier is adamant Usman didn’t purposefully attempt to attack anybody, he understands in the heat of the moment why the reigning PFL lightweight champion was desperately trying to get his brother after watching him get knocked out.
“What he did was try to get to his brother,” Cormier said. “That in itself is not allowed. We are not allowed to do that. But if there’s anyone that you care about immensely and you want to rush to their side in that moment, it is your brother. Blood brother. Not a brother as in a friend that you love, not a cousin, not a relative. This is his actual brother.
“So he jumps into the octagon, which is not allowed but if there’s any time that someone will deal on emotion, you would think that it was this.”
That said, Cormier knows whether he ran into Song or not, Usman has to take responsibility for his actions because he shouldn’t have been in the octagon in the first place.
“The reason they won’t let people jump [into the octagon] is because of the things that happened with Khabib and Conor [McGregor] and all those other things,” Cormier said. “They cannot control whenever the situation gets chaotic.
“That’s why Usman cannot do that. But I am more inclined to get him a bit of grace because you watch your brother get starched in that way”
The incident didn’t escalate and nothing else happened before doctors were able to get in the cage to check on Umar following his knockout loss. UFC officials haven’t made any statement on the incident but it appears cooler heads prevailed all the way around after the brief run-in between Usman and Song in the cage.
