UFC fans rejoice as mini-marvel sensation Hasbulla pens meeting with Dana White
UFC fans around the world are celebrating after it was revealed that MMA internet star Hasbulla will be meeting with UFC boss Dana White in Abu Dhabi this weekend.
White will be in the United Arab Emirates for UFC 267 this weekend, with the card being headlined by light heavyweights Jan Blachowicz and Glover Teixeira.
As well as the action in the Octagon, it seems White will also be concentrating on his meet with the Russian fighter who has become an internet sensation in recent months.
In a video uploaded onto White’s Twitter page Hasbulla is seen sending a message to the UFC president, telling him that he is on his way to Abu Dhabi and to be ‘ready’.
A fierce looking Hasbulla said: “Dana White, I'm coming to Abu Dhabi, see you, and be ready."
In the same post the video is seen then clipping away to White, who offers his reply to the Russian whilst on a lavish-looking private jet on his way to the UAE.
White replied: “Hasbulla, I'm on the plane. I'm on my way to Abu Dhabi. I cannot wait for our meeting and I cannot wait to see you."
The Tweet on the UFC boss' account has since received 31,000 likes, and has clocked up just under a million views.
Following the post, a number of fans were quick to support the proposed meeting set up by the pair, with many suggesting he should take on former fighter Henry Cejudo after Khabib Nurmagomedov joked that Hasbulla would 'kill him'.

"I'm training my boy Abdu. No word of a lie, I'm not even s****ing you. Abdu's on my team.
"Hasbulla can be on his team. He's picked his horse. He's picked the losing horse. Game on baby."
