Hasbulla has vowed to attack Abdu Rozik when he sees him next, declaring he wants to beat his rival "until he bleeds".
The Russian social media star has said that Rozik, from Tajikistan, is "ducking" a fight with him, despite the fact that he has previously expressed little interest in fighting. The pair are both superstars online after a video of a mock press conference for their 'fight' went viral on YouTube.
They came face-to-face since at a UFC event in Dubai last October, where they almost got into it at cageside, but were kept apart. Both Hasbulla and Rozik have growth deficiencies that keep them at heights of around 3'2", with fans believing them to be much younger than their actual ages.
Hasbulla claims that Rozik only talks about him when the pair are separated, telling Barstool Sports: “When I’m in Dubai, his home, he is nowhere to be found. But when I go back to Dagestan, he starts talking that talk. And when we actually square up in person, he freezes. He literally can’t move. But next time I see him, it’s on sight. I’ll throw a hook.
"He's a clown. How about this? Put us in a room, shut the door and one man will come out and the other can stay slumped on the floor."
However, despite indicating that he wants to fight with Rozik, Hasbulla maintains that he has no desire to train, and he is instead more interested in enjoying his newfound fame. "Lately I've just been relaxing and enjoying life, really," he explained. "I have no desire to train."
He feels that a "real man" would be ready to fight regardless of a training camp, which he very much is when it comes to Rozik. "I've told him many times that I don't want to smoke him because the bottom line is he is a clown," he continued.

"But the more I ignore him, the worse it gets. Right now I see no other solution than to smack him the next time I see him. And that's a promise.
"But enough time wasted on that annoying little child. There are many more questions to cover. I'll answer those - I just want to beat him until he bleeds."
Rozik has previously indicated that he has no interest in a fight with his rival, despite the pair's consistent back-and-forth, and near coming to blows at the UFC 267 event in Dubai. "I don't need him," he told The Schmo. "Hasbulla is a chicken, he is only talking and eating strawberries. Hasbulla is no good."
Hasbulla's close friend Khabib Nurmagomedov has also rubbished the fight, insisting that the pair should become friends instead of squaring off in the octagon or a boxing ring.
