Conor McGregor’s UFC return did not go to plan as Khabib Nurmagomedov delivered a career-best display to win by submission – but that soon became an afterthought amid chaotic post-fight scenes in Las Vegas.An ugly brawl between the camps provoked a strong reaction on social media – much more so than the actual outcome of the fight.Everyone from every sport was having their say on the dramatic scenes that unfolded immediately after the fight, with UFC fighters and boxers the main voices of opinion.Former UFC lightweight champion of the world Rafael dos Anjos was less than impressed by Nurmagomedov and his team, calling their actions “unacceptable”.“You can’t jump the fence and punch the fighter,” he said.Many pointed to McGregor’s attack on Nurmagomedov’s on a bus in April – footage of which was used in promoting this fight – as justification for Nurmagomedov’s actions, but a number of MMA fighters disagreed.Megan Anderson claimed “one evil doesn’t make another ok” and said Nurmagomedov should have risen above what had happened.“As a champion, you set a higher standard,” she wrote. “You don’t stoop to that level. This is not the actions of a champion.”Corey Anderson felt the incident would be used to paint McGregor as “the victim” while Daniel Cormier said it showed that “some things aren’t for fight promotion”.British MMA fighter John Maguire suggested there might be a more cynical motive behind the drama.“Don’t worry people it will all be forgotten about in a couple of weeks and then there will be a even bigger build-up for a rematch,” he wrote.However, one person was all for what was going on after the fight.Unsurprisingly, that person is the ever-controversial Tyson Fury.After seeing the chaos ensue in the States, the Gypsy King simply tweeted: "Excellent aftermath of the UFC tonight all is fair in love and war,!"

He then followed that tweet up with the following: "Whoever says they have never been punched in the back of the head then they have never been involved in a brawl!! It’s all a part of being a fighting man. 😜😉"

His final tweet simply stated that it's all part of the job: "What the average fan don’t understand is it’s show business as well as a fight. Think how big a rematch could be."
