If I was Conor I would demand to be on the July 7th card & I'd ask for Khabib knowing that khabib will be diminished via quick turn around + ramadan if he accepts. Last time Khabib fought during ramadan was vs Tibau, easily his worst performance in the octagon.
More than likely Khabib declines because he is set on fighting next in SEP or NOV. Now Conor can fight Nate with Ferguson hurt & Khabib being muslim, which will probably be easier fight out of all his possible options to return & the most profitable. Then Conor can sit on sidelines for a while and avoid Khabib until Khabib gets injured again. OR, maybe he can fight Khabib at MSG if he really wants it.
That's the best move for Conor imo. Unless he can actually get Floyd in the octagon but I can't believe that until it happens.
