when you earn so much money in life and you cant pay tax from it and then this happen! probably it was for years when this amount now is in millions! lot of players from all sports have problems with taxes in many countries, because they want to take whole money from them, but we can see when serious country is in question, they will collect what is for them!

Since retiring suddenly and following the death of his father, the former UFC lightweight champion has embarked on a series of business ventures that include dietary supplements and a chain of restaurants and hotels. and now a debt to the Russian state, a shame for him, I hope he can solve his problems.

It's disappointing to see such a talented and respected fighter like Khabib Nurmagomedov facing financial troubles and legal issues. McGregor's mocking tweets seem unnecessary and disrespectful given the seriousness of the situation. It's important to wait for all the facts to come out before making judgements.

It is funny to read, he has tax problems in russian federastation, in country, where stealing is norm for all , who have power, starting the biggest thief, "president". Feels like decoy operation, to point peoples interest away from war and money, that is spent on it.

As much as i know, investigation is not over and he is not guilty yet. He is most likely faulty of not giving enough bribe to some higher power people. You can not earn money in russia and not kick some % of it up.

What, no. It was in the news. And it was also in the news, that Navalni died because of health problems. There is no lies in any autocratic country news, especially in russistan news.

You just automatically assumed, he is guilty, because corrupted goverment of absolutely twofaced agressor country stated, that he is. So i pointed out, that it is very likely, that this case is decoy, to direct people away from war and to pretend, that they are fighting crime and countering terrorists. In normal country it would be atleast normal to wait til end of court, but in orcland im sure court is already fixed and sentence is already decided.
