Media Ali Abdelaziz hints that Khabib is meeting Dana very soon : 'Decision time #khabib'

[GueseGuy]

pretty sure GSP is the one who first said he wanted to come back ... he even said after khabib's retirement, he ll only come back for Khabib.

Wrong. When he was first asked about it a few years back early 2018, he said he wouldn’t come back because he doesn’t need money and Khabib doesn’t do anything for his legacy. Then Khabib beat McGregor and became a megastar. Then he changed his tune. But Khabib started it.

GSP megafight not happening because of weight class

So Khabib - Ferguson, now that Ferguson is not in his prime anymore

But gotta admit it would be funny if Ferguson was who takes him out somehow

so once Khabib became a megastar, GSP want to fight him ? so u understand that GSP want to fight khabib right ? no begging there, actually the last person to have talked about wanting this fight isn't Khabib, but GSP ...

 

[Fraz]

I think this is more fantasy than reality. Ufc is also in bed with ramzan and aca. Dana knows what happens when he pisses off mob bosses.

Dot forget about the arab sheikh's that love khabib.

Dana is just a figurehead, it's clearly Khabib and crew that runs the UFC now

Khabib clearly started it. And yes that’s when GSP wanted to fight him. GSP said he wouldn’t come out of retirement for a fight unless it is for legacy and Khabib didn’t provide that until he beat Conor.

and who is the last person to have talked about this potential fight ? Khabib or GSP ?

I think a lot of those Khabib cronies will get trebuchet'ed out of UFC if Khabib says he's out and Dana wants nothing to do with Khabib's MMA org.

Khabib has already made a deal with UFC so that his new org is fight pass and Khabib still is man enough and powerful enough to be respected by Dana. If you're khabib's team mates and you are good enough you will not have any issues with UFC.

Khabib/Conor 2 fall 2021

My guess Khabib and his crew are going to meet dana soon. They should be on their way to fight island

why is this a guess when both Dana and Khabib have confirmed multiple times that they're gonna meet in Abu Dhabi?

What if you have a dodgy record and just missed weight by 5lbs - didn't even use the 2 hour window to come back smaller, and went on to have an abysmal performance against a style match up that your crew is known for beating?

And what about that Fight Pass deal - I thought it was something Khabib only wanted to get done by meeting with Dana. At least, that's what all the articles phrase it as. One example here: https://middleeasy.com/mma-rumors/11-29-20-rumor-mill/

Has there been a confirmation? I mean, more MMA entertainment isn't something I'm against, so I'm not hating on the idea. But was it confirmed?

It's acted on already apparently. As for Zuba since he's the one you are talking about, nothing happend to him after the Conor fiasco, he's not going to get cut after one bad performance, if he reproduced that yes I agree with you it woulndt look good, but Khabib won't let that happen. Shit happens. Artem Lobov never got cut despite being an abysmal fighter, he asked to be released.

Khabib is making business moves, he has a good relationship with dana and I think that's what he will discuss with him.

Video: Khabib doubles down on retirement, launches Eagle Fighting Championship on Fight Pass - MMAmania.com
The reporting I saw seemed to confirm the Fight Pass deal but Khabib also wants to set Eagle MMA up as a UFC feeder league where there is a set path to a UFC contract like a set number of title defenses. Think that's what ongoing talks might be about.

 

[Misanthropist]

Is this recent?

 

[Memeojima]

Hey Georges

Quit ducking like you did Anderson and give us the fight we want to see

Cringer pants. Also GSP doesn't read shitdog lol

 

[GrantB13]

I hate these stupid ass tweets.
“lEtS bE vAgUe. ThAt’lL gEt tHeM”

Yes. It's the trend and it's stupid. Like Tyron just saying "Cut". Or when there's a beef even outside the MMA world and they post something with no details or names and then everyone speculates who they could be talking about. Better yet is when those people already know who it is because they dedicate their lives to tabloid gossip

 

[Rorschachxx]

Hasn't it been pretty much established Khabib is going to meet Dana during UFC257 fight week to talk to him about his own promotion and getting it on fightpass? I'm sure Dana will try but I dont think it'll have an effect.

 

[xXxGhost89xXx]

same here, but like I said. he's a manager. could just be talking shit and just want to keep his fighter's name up in the mma circles. But just thought I'd post it. I shouldn't post any more of his tweets though

You’re good brotha. You’re posting fight related news on an mma site. Whether it be vague or not, us fight nerds like to know what’s going on.

 

[xXxGhost89xXx]

Exactly. Vague messages or tweets or anything social media related doesn’t make me curious and want more. It actually does the exact opposite for me. I immediately don’t give a shit and keep scrolling. I guess it works on some people.

 

[Strijfy]

the guy that actually dared to move up a division and get a second belt, despite never missing weight a single time at 145 is a weight and size bully........

but not Khabib who has missed and weight literally nearly died cutting to 155 and doesn't even entertain the idea of fighting at 170? k

is Holloway a size bully too?

edit: why am I even responding to a dec 2020 account. what did you get banned for? blind Conor hatred that went a lil too far?

You mean the guy that dared move up to his natural weightclass... whoops forced to I mean after no longer being able to IV. Conor made weight once without IV and we all saw the emaciated results...take a breath from your load gurgling.
