Khabib is a trash just like Conor. Tony had no obligation to give him shot and could have waited for Conor. And now he's going running like conor did from only legit threat in division according to most analysts. Khabib owes it to fans Tony UFC to prove he's the best even at LW before doing this.
It won't, because Dana and WME have to allow it to happen. It worked for Conor because
1. He's a promotional genius and would market the shit out of the fight (do ppl want to see silent Khabib stonewalling as Mayweather does all the talking?)
2. There was a SLIGHT chance Conor could beat Floyd based on age alone. Not talking about skill to all those triggered. But seriously, the only reason Conor lasted 10 rounds was because Floyd is 40 yrs old.
Now that we've seen the difference, does WME really want their next potential crown jewel, undefeated champ getting murked in boxing?
3. Dana doesn't like Khabib as much as he does Conor. Maybe if Khabib fights out his contract and goes elsewhere, he'll get that fight. But not under Dana.
