Sounds like bullshit to me. The month leading up to 300 is Ramadan.

Despite adding several current and former champions to the card, many are still upset at the quality of UFC 300 but that could all be about to change with Khabib Nurmagomedov's potential return.

Rumors are suggesting that Leon Edwards is set to put his belt on the line against rightful contender Belal Muhammad, but those plans may have now changed. The Brit is looking to make his third defense of the title when he steps into the octagon next time out.


Amid the speculation of UFC 300 and who is set to headline the huge event, Chael Sonnen believes he has pieced the answer together. Khabib Nurmagomedov could be on his way back to the octagon after recent comments from his coach surfaced.

"Coach Javier Mendez, owner and leader of the American Kickboxing Academy, came out in an interview and said that Khabib is back training with me."

"He said, 'Khabib always goes to practice, but he only trains with me when he's getting ready for a fight.' And that is all I know."

I keep hearing Khabib rumours because he's apparently training again, seems a ridiculous to me if that is all that has instigated such speculation.

Allah will help Khabib cut from 220

 

[Wormwood]

Did Khabib’s mother change her mind?

 

[LeBron]

I don’t see Khabib fucking Belal over like that.

 

[JohnMandick]

Uncle Chael is undefeated in breaking news as he is undefeated in the cage!

 

[Milenkovic]

nah

 

[duke_droese]

Did Khabib’s mother change her mind?

He told her USADA is leaving, let me get on GSP cycle.

 

[akeller901]

I mean between him retiring and his mother and all, him jumping Belal, and Ramadan it seems pretty slim, BUT that’s a fucking main event for UFC 300 if i’ve ever seen one

 

[Mcnugget]

Khabib is fat now. Ain’t happening

 

[Wormwood]

He told her USADA is leaving, let me get on GSP cycle.

I read that in Khabib’s voice…

 

[dipstickjimmy]

He told her USADA is leaving, let me get on GSP cycle.

??? You one of those idiots who thinks GSP ducked USADA when the lack of comprehensive and random testing was one of the biggest reasons he left the UFC.

 

[deanambrose]

Yes, this is true. I have rest of UFC 300 card right here :

Manel Kape vs Israel Adesanya
Tom Aspinall vs Brock Lesnar
Paddy Pimblett vs Ilia Topuria
Ronda Rousey vs Cain Velasquez
Joe Rogan vs Hasbulla for new Manletweight Championship
Tony Ferguson vs Fabricio Werdum
Fedor Emalianenko vs Stipe Miocic for second interim Heavyweight Championship

Enjoy!

I doubt we could even do Khabib vs Pereira at this point

 

[Domitian]

I'd fall out of my chair if a Khabib fight was announced. The source is Chael Sonnen though so like -3% chance of this being true.

 

[Rayess]

Don't think it would happen, but if all stars align, why not.....
His father wanted him to retire 30-0, if his mom gives him the green light + if he feels he's just a beast in the gym with full confidence, that's one fight to cement his legendary status even more.

On top of it, that would pissed Canner so bad, and I'm sure Khabib and Ali would enjoy it, as a cherry on the cake
