How about Khabib vs Alvarez?

[Touch of Death]

Conor hopefully defends against Tony sometime in the next few months.

They should book Khabib vs Eddie for the no.1 contender as they are both coming off dominant wins. Khabib should not fight for the title yet, he should show he can make weight consistently.

It's easy to look dominant in spurts like Khabib has but Tony has fought actively against the best in the division and should rightly fight for the belt.

Whoever wins the fight against Eddie vs Khabib should then fight Conor/Tony.

 

[Bubzeh]

No bro.

 

[WaylonMercy5150]

Conor will never defend. Khabib vs Tony for real title

 

[Touch of Death]

No bro.

Why not?

It would be a great fight.

Conor will never defend. Khabib vs Tony for real title

Time will tell. Hopefully he does.

If he doesn't then I agree with Khabib vs Tony.

 

[Frankie Baby!]

Eddie needs to fight Dustin again first

 

[Dertysandal]

Look what he did to his teammate. I think barboza is more lethal than Alvarez and has better takedown defense

No, because Khabib is already a number one contender and should fight for the title after Tony x Conor. And Alvarez does not deserve a number one contender match.

If Conor defends: Conor vs Tony , Khabib vs Alvarez
If Conor vacates: Khabib vs Tony

Khabib has already said that he wants to fight in March, September and December next year. If Conor defends, Khabib will need an opponent for March, and whilst I would rather see him against Lee, Alvarez is the next contender after Khabib and the only one coming off a win.

I thought being muscular would help beat khabib but no makes it worse when it's clinch time u gas so fast and technique always beats strength

Not to mention..
Muscles can’t beat years of wrestling bears

[seanb1979]

no one at 155 in the ufc can beat khabib - only a top tier wrestler will give him a run for his money

 

[Kneeuinthenutz]

This is what's going to happen.

Conor is going to be stripped of his fake title because he wants no part of fighting Tony or Khabib and losing for anything less than a ridiculous amount of money....He won't get it.

Tony and Khabib will fight for the real title.

Conor will return in August/Septmber to fight Nate Diaz in a trilogy, and then possibly retire from MMA afterwards....

 

[Sakuraba7]

Chicken shit Alvarez will duck him again.

And keep Eddie away from a title, he single handedly threw the LW division into the toilet with his cherry-picking of Conor.

 

[jk7707]

Conor isn't going to be fighting in the next few months.

 

[Silverstar17]

I see Khabib dominating Eddie. If it's a 5 rounder Eddie might have a shot at a comeback if Khabib gasses. But so far his gas tank looks excellent.

 

[thobra]

That is a great fight. Eddie is a big guy that is good all over. I would pick Eddie in this one, but Khabib was Damn impressive in his last fight, so I might be wrong. I just don’t see him controlling Eddie.
