WATCH: Behind-the-scene clips reveal the full story of Hasbulla abusing his cat

Famous internet sensation Hasbulla Magomedov recently came under fire after a video of him pulling his cat's ear and hitting it went viral on social media. However, it seems the widely shared clip did not tell the whole story of the incident.

The 20-year-old Dagestani influencer, known for his small stature and child-like features, rose to fame due to his entertaining videos and close affiliation with UFC stars like Khabib Nurmagomedov and Islam Makhachev.

A recent Twitter thread by @RustigNiffauw claims to show the full picture of what really happened and potentially clear Hasbulla's name.

The thread begins with footage of the influencer letting his cat outside. The cat can be seen walking around in peace before another cat approaches Barsik, and Hasbulla chases it away.

The thread continues with some humorous commentary as the 20-year-old continues to chase the other cat away with a toy gun. When the other cat is finally chased away, Hasbulla can be seen scolding his cat and punishing it by restricting it to its box.

In the end, the cat seemed unharmed and happy to get some loving pats from Habulla. While the thread aims to amuse with its humorous commentary, the videos seem to show the full picture of the influencer's controversial clip.

Hasbulla abusing cat: Influencer addresses video of him beating his pet after social media backlash

After Hasbulla faced a huge wave of criticism after a clip of him hitting his cat went viral on the internet, the teenage internet sensation issued a clarification, rubbishing the narrative of him abusing his cat Barsik.

The Dagestani claimed that pets need to be disciplined at times and that the ear-pulling and hitting were playful in nature.

Addressing the allegations against him, Hasbulla recently stated in a video uploaded to his social media:

'Mini Khabib' suffers from a rare genetic condition known as Growth Hormone Deficiency (GHD), which stunts growth, and is often seen being carried around or cuddled by many of his famous friends.

With his child-like features, the influencer is no stranger to being treated like one. However, the internet consensus is that the influencer should be treated as a 20-year-old and held accountable for his actions.
