He was a goofball and tripped on a cord in a studio in which he was wearing sunglasses in, and tore his leg apart so he pulled out, then just recently he turns down the fight with poirier for IC and a chance to fight Khabib ..so even though I feel bad over his mental issues he's had lately, you can't say Khabib is the one stalling.

[@bigvanvader3122]

@@brandonbarton9942 you're a moron. The interim belt is meaningless. If anything it makes the real belt less significant. The only reason such a belt exists is because of idiots like you. Idiots who see that a belt is on the line and therefore purchase the PPV event that they may otherwise not have. Poirier is not a champion, hes just the number 1 contender. Khabib is the champion, period.
