If khabib returns, do you feel the winner of Dustin Vs Conor should get a rematch?

Should the winner of Conor Vs Dustin 2 get a rematch against Khabib for the LW Belt?

Right. If Dustin and Charles win I don’t expect khabib to defend the 155 belt

Yeah you nailed it with your 2 posts imo.

I suppose GSP and Chandler are the curve ball who fucking knows options, Tony the right option, die hard choice(potentially scuppered by Du Bronx) and Conor the $$$ casual easy option(potentially scuppered by Dustin).

In order of who i'd want to see him fight right now, i'd go with.

Tony>GSP>>>Conor/Du Bronx>Chandler/Gaethje/Dustin.

I can’t say I disagree. I’m curious how it’s approached from the ufc perspective. If Oliveria wins and Conor wins, do they push Conor vs khabib 2 because oliveria doesn’t have massive draw power like tony? If tony wins do they just go ahead and book tony vs khabib regardless of who wins Conor vs Dustin? It’ll be interesting to see how they handle it.

I think as far as most hardcore fans like you or I are concerned, tony or Charles is the no brainer. But if I’m running a business and trying to make money, I know damn well khabib vs Conor was the greatest ppv seller in the history of combat sports. Even if you do half that for the second one, which it won’t, you’re still making a fuck ton of money.

I’m curious to see how this plays out

The UFC will want Conor 100%. But I think Khabib gets to decide at the end of the day and I doubt Khabib gives Conor a rematch.

Khabib may also sit back, watch the fights and pick which one he wants to take out. I have a gut feeling that Khabib wants to give Tony the shot if the GSP fight doesn't happen just because of all the fallouts and just having Tony's name under his belt puts him as undoubtedly the LW GOAT
 
Dustin or Conor makes no sense, at all. Khabib made both of them tap already.
IF Khabib returns, feed him the winner of Tony-Do Bronx.

Yeah I think you’re right. I think tony has a shot at beating Charles too, which I think will be a bloody mess.
 
Conor does look pretty mean these days. If he demolishes Dustin I’d really like to see him rematch Khabib.

But I doubt he will
 
GSP, or the 170 belt holder. Anyone else is just money and i dont think money is Khabibs #1 priority is money.
 
If Charlie beats Ferguson, I'd like to see him get the shot as a new contender.

We haven't see Khabib against an aggressive submission artist and Oliveira has a great record of finding nasty subs.

The part time viewers that don't pick up on that match are going to be missing out big time. It may be one of those fights that is more entertaining on the ground than standing. I'm praying that fight doesn't fall through.

It will be a huge fight. Both guys are so scrappy and awkward. We’re gonna see some incredibly creative and unorthodox fighting, and I’m all about it
 
If only this cheeky chappy didn't do a number on Tony and there would be no question .

Yeah, see, I think that was possibly the biggest mistake I’ve ever seen a fighter make. There’s so many excuses available but I don’t feel valid using any of them for tony because of how bad he looked in the later rounds. I almost would have had an easier time I Justin just ko’d him in round 1
 
Well Khabib fought super rarely even before retiring so I think it makes more sense to have the LW winners of 256 and 257 face each other, either for a vacant belt or to eventually set up a Khabib comeback. If UFC wasn't lame, they'd throw Justin v. Chandler and make this tournament style but they'll never do that so whatever.
 
If Tony beats Do Bronx it should be him, Conor can get the rematch after he boxes Pac for that super fight $ I’m sure they both want

Why are sherdogers only opposed to rematches when it involves Khabib?

because all his matches are pretty one sided and we have no reason to believe they would go any different.

Now if conor, tony, dustin, gaethje all get into some type of tournament bracket and one guy absolutely blows through everyone else with one sided finishes in 2-3 rounds... then they can have a khabib rematch.
