Depends on if Kevin wins his fight. I'd like to see Gaethje or Kevin next if they win their fights.

If Poirier wins give him the shot.
If Gaethje wins do Tony vs Gaethje and the winner of Cheisa/Pettis vs Khabib
If Kevin Lee wins and Poirier loses, do Kevin Lee vs Khabib
If Barboza wins and Poirier loses, Barboza vs Tony 2 and the winner of Chiesa/Pettis vs Khabib.
If Gaethje wins do Tony vs Gaethje and the winner of Cheisa/Pettis vs Khabib
If Kevin Lee wins and Poirier loses, do Kevin Lee vs Khabib
If Barboza wins and Poirier loses, Barboza vs Tony 2 and the winner of Chiesa/Pettis vs Khabib.

Not in a million years does the winner of Cheisa/Pettis deserve a title shot.

I just feel like they'd deserve it over Gaethje or Barboza (who Khabib just beat), gotta be honest I can't think who else is out there. Alvarez I suppose?

Think Khabib is looking for GSP next presuming he wins

I wouldn't mind seeing Khabib vs Lee.
Kevin is a beast wrestler in his own right, and maybe the physically strongest guy in the division.

Meh. I know Alvarez would be hard to sell but Cheisa hasn't even beaten anyone top 10 has he? Dariush and Trinaldo are fringe. Pettis is barely top 15 anymore.

I'd say Tony or Conor. Pretty clear cut- They're the number 1 & 2 guys in that division.
(Although one of those 2 fighters doesn't actually want any part in fighting Khabib...)

One thing is for sure, Conor can't lose to anyone because he doesn't fight

Yes, Kevin Lee is the only LW who can beat Khabib.

I suppose so. So if Barboza and Gaethje both win, you'd give it to Gaethje?

Yeah I guess so... Keep in mind Khabib wants GSP in November and there's still the Conor possibility. I'll be hoping Lee wins anyway.
