Artem Lobov has spoken. He doesn’t want the UFC to let Zubaira Tukhugov off the hook.

Officially, Lobov is still slated to meet Tukhugov later this month in the UFC Fight Night 138 co-headliner. But on Thursday, lightweight champion Khabib Nurmagomedov, Tukhugov’s teammate, revealed Thursday that the fight has been canceled and the UFC is prepared to release Tukhugov from his contract for his role in the post-fight melee at UFC 229.

That’s doesn’t sit well with Lobov, who had a message for UFC President Dana White (via Twitter).

Dana dont let Tukhugov escape his punishment, put him back in! @danawhite — Artem Lobov (@RusHammerMMA) October 11, 2018

UFC Fight Night 138 takes place Oct. 27 at SMG Moncton in Moncton, New Brunswick, Canada. The card airs on FS1 following early prelims on UFC Fight Pass.

Nurmagomedov (27-0 MMA, 11-0 UFC) submitted McGregor (21-4 MMA, 9-2 UFC) in the fourth round of the UFC 229 main event to retain the lightweight title this past Saturday. After the fight was over, Nurmagomedov went over the fence and into the crowd after one of McGregor’s teammates, Dillon Danis. While that was happening outside the cage, another melee was happening inside the cage when some of Nurmagomedov’s teammates, including Tukhugov, came over the fence and got into it with McGregor. Video footage from all kinds of angles show McGregor taking a swing on the fence, but then getting hit from behind moments later.

Nurmagomedov threatened to leave the UFC if Tukhugov is fired.

“If you think that I’ll keep silent then you are mistaken,” Nurmagomedov said on Instagram. “You canceled Zubaira’s fight and you want to dismiss him just because he hit Conor. But don’t forget that it was Conor who had hit my another Brother FIRST, just check the video.

“if you decide to fire him, you should know that you’ll lose me too. We never give up on our brothers in Russia and I will go to the end for my Brother. If you still decide to fire him, don’t forget to send me my broken contract, otherwise I’ll break it myself.”
