No. It’s too unfair to GSP, and has too much risk for GSP and less for Khabib. If Khabib loses, people will just go “well that’s expected, GSP is the greatest to ever do it.” But if GSP loses, the casuals will flock into MMA world and go “GSP is nothing, Khabib is the greatest” and thusly destroy GSP’s legacy simply because he lost at 40 years old.

😂 .. Khabib will relinquish that belt after he finishes the chess game he’s about to play on the Notorious

[@kosisochukwumd]

Look at this 1. I will come back if somebody impress me (everybody is hoping Conor’s 60sec KO will cut it ) FACT : nothing Conor does will impress him only if it’s a crazy ground and pound and a submission , which isn’t conor’s thing 2. Olivera looked good . Olivera has impressed him ( with his wrestling ) and helped him get rid of Tony Ferguson . ( ultimate impression ) Lol. Khabib will throw in Olivera for Conor and he’ll fight the winner Or if Chandler happens to show a crazy ground game Khabib will say " okay. Chandler/Olivera vs Conor then I’ll come back and fight the winner . he ( Conor ) have to deserve this “ If Conor happens to lose to one of these guys with good ground game, Khabib will say " sambady already smesh him everywhere , now he ganna kam back and sambady ganna beat him again “ .. that’s the end of the story guys Khabib will relinquish the title and everything will go cold again like the Tony Ferguson match up Hopefully Conor wins Dustin and the next challenge Khabib puts up Then Khabib has to fight him or the whole MMA world will go to Russia and drag him to the Octagon .

Don't forget Dustin is a Black belt himself, he has also fought some of the greatest fighters on earth, and yet khabib made him look like a child.

[@auroralupton]

I'd watch khabib fight Max Holloway

[@jsmith4911]

Has anyone mentioned this? I have a strong feeling a big selling point of the contract The UFC made with Dubai in bringing fights over there had Khabibs’ name tied into the mix somewhere as a big selling point. If he goes there goes a big portion of revenue generated. Especially with the lack of fans. That’s why Dana wants him to stay so bad. Khabib has more leverage then Conor and an entire country behind his name. But he wouldn’t hold this over Dana. I think this also bothers Conor. I really hope Khabib doesn’t fight Conor again. The level of disrespect Conor had toward Khabib and his family/team goes beyond the means of establishing a rematch. Conor criticizes Khabib for not defending his belt against him (again after being choked out) for a legit means for retiring. But how many times has Conor retired vs defended any of his belts? He never gave Jose a rematch when many think he deserved one, after being champ for I believe, a decade.

[@PetePools]

I agree that Conor never returned the favor to anyone, so.... Khabib doesn't need to return any favors to Conor. Conor doesn't deserve any favors.

[@brokenchickenleg]

Disagree... it's not interesting because Kabib was never interesting. He built that record fighting a bunch of nobodies until his last 1.5 years. I'm glad he's gone and he would have lost in the next year if he had stayed.

Dana has found a way to keep us un the edge.... not. This whole scenario becomes boring pretty quickly. A rematch with conor? Why ? The first fight was clearly enough. Charles oliveira? Who the fuck is that? Not that I don`t know, but why pairing him up with khabib? What do you expect as a result? Charles completely dominating him? Blah. This is all way too predictable and therefore boring to the max. Get GSP. If not, leave Khabib. No other Matchup is interesting.

[@pauljones4763]

At this point, Khabib's potential comeback is getting old. Dana White should say to Khabib, "Let me know when you want to fight again."

OLIVEIRA VS KHABIB

[@shanesperling9750]

So Dana misses the boat on another big fight. He once said he wouldn't be like boxing and out on the fights the fans wanted first. What 4 legacy fights has he opted out on due to "timing" Gsp/Anderson Anderson/Jones Velasquez/Jones Gsp/Khabib In the last few days he's out down our throats that's Mystic Mac/Khabib is the fight to make? Sure that's a great one. But it falls in to entertainment over legacy. Dana has wandered as all have. For any of us long term fans since the beggining. Gsp/Khabib is as big of fight as there could ever be for reasons we only know. Dana didn't want to promote that.

[@fantagrape682]

Khabib will fight Conor if he beats Poirier. If Dustin beats Conor, Khabib vs Dustin is not a big enough fight to want to make it your last fight. I still think GSP is on the table because it just makes sense that would be the most hyped fight. Imagine a poster with Khabib and GSP like are you even kidding me take my money. But I think Dana has something up his sleeve to convince Khabib to fight McGregor again. Khabib owns a fight promotion now as well as a mobile network company. A deal could be struck by the UFC to help either of those companies. Khabib actually made smart business moves to ensure he's in the driver's seat in negotiations.

[@LOGOS422]

Dana enjoys annoying Conor by indulging Khabib. Even against Cowboy, Conor sold double the PPVs than Khabib could in a title fight. Dana is forgetting who really makes cash for the UFC at his peril.

[@thanevakarian9762]

Just do Khabib vs Olivera and get it over with. He doesn’t want to fight Conor cause A he doesn’t want to give him a rematch, and B no matter what anyone says he knows that’s still a very dangerous fight and possibly getting his first L on his 30th fight and against Conor of all people would be devestating. Even if he knows he wins 8/10 times.... just do Olivera so the man can get his W and retire for real and we can move on with the division.

[@thyltons]

Or Khabib DID retire BUT was emotional and Dana simply clung to the hope that he would come back and promised him whatever he wants to try to entice him--Everything else is just the truth and you/we are just waaay overthinking the whole thing while shining Dana`s stick to make him seem like a promotional genius merely for keeping us updated

[@Sideshowbob97]

I'm happy for khabib to fight again but I can see why he doesn't want Connor he dominated him. He wanted gsp but at 155 and George is 39 so I don't see how that's fair cause khabib would beat him however why not face gsp at 170 on his perch even though he's 39 he could've given khabib his toughest test

[@mohdfaizmy]

Well..Actually i got strong feelin that if khabib make a comeback again, the one and only he want to fight is GSP.. But until now dana try to hiding all this to us.. I think dana will only announces this after connor and dustin fight.. If he annouces this now, im really sure that most media and fans attention goin to focus on khabib/gsp..meanwhile dana already spend much money to make this big fight happen for connor.. Just wait n see guys..!

[@asimpson164]

Khabib should vacate the belt just so he can win it back from a champion later this year. As it is now he won it in from a non-champion in Al Iaquinta. Khabib's legacy doesn't need what I suggest here but it would surely help much later on when we get the next unbeatable champion.

[@superchiller123chill]

Khabib ain't coming back to 155. He seems to have gained a few pounds and is definitely enjoying tiramisu.

[@BigTInTheMorning]

Khabib vs McGregor isn’t exciting again. The only one who would be exciting is if Charlie olives can beat Gaethje

[@screenplaya4562]

I am not very interested in this story, as I believe it is only a story because Dana is not concerned with facts and reality. I don't think he has any control or even influence over Khabib. Khabib might come back to fight Poirier if Poirier wins, and that was likely always the case. Khabib is not going to grant Conor a rematch, no matter what. If Conor stops Dustin again, Khabib will say the result is the same as the last time, just as it would be if he rematched with Conor.
