Javier Mendez : Khabibs next opponent should be Ferguson, not McGregor, who just had 1 'pit stop'

[Arm Barbarian]

at 155 lbs, and hasn't defended...

Sounds like Khabib is not even really interested in fighting Conor, nor does he consider him to be the true Lightweight Champ.

Looks like El Cucuy vs The Eagle is coming closer to fruition.

Question is, will it be for the Interim, or the ACTUAL title?

5:05

 

[VVarhead]

I agree.
It should be Tony vs Conor for the real belt or Khabib vs Tony for the real belt and strip Conor, there is no other way.

 

[SVG]

Then they got to officially strip Conor for this to happen

Sounds like the eagle is already trying to duck Conor

Khabib ducking the champ champ two weight classes smaller than him confirmed.

No, but the Eagle does not care about fake belts. He often talked about how his legacy is really important to him, so he wants to fight the best.
And the best Lightweight is Tony right now.

He's a more undisputed champ than Conor. He beat everyone apart from Khabib. Conor beat no one apart from Alvarez, lol.

True enough on having more wins than Conor in the UFC for that weight class, but if he wanted legitimacy , he should be fighting Conor and the real belt?

Conor has 0% legitimacy at Lightweight
Tony has 100% legitimacy and a 10 fight winstreak.

Tony is the real LW champ.

 

[ortizgnp]

They are ignoring Conor until he can't take it anymore.

A+ strategy imo

Outside of the sherdog Conor hater echo chamber everyone realizes that Conor has the real belt.

Yeah Khabib is opting to take his hardest match up but is ducking one of his easiest match ups in the division.

Sure, bro.

 

[Jawth]

Then they got to officially strip Conor for this to happen

But they wont

If he comes back at all he'll "defend" against Nate while Tony fights Khabib then still wont fight the winner.

Tony is the real LW champ.

As years pass the record books will show Conor as the legitimate champion for this timeframe regardless what our emotions tell us

He wants to fight the guy that beat a fringe top 10 guy for his belt instead of the guy who beat #1 Eddie? Lmao at Legacy excuse. Javier knows it's a bad match up and Tony is easy and like the WW division Khabib will duck and duck to create his artificial record!

 

[2GunTommy]

This is #1 reverse psychology.

 

[Marc A]

Sure, bro.

Opinion based , technically Khabib is the favorite vs Conor but the idea that he will be his easiest? Time will tell

 

[TheGrouch]

I agree.
It should be Tony vs Conor for the real belt or Khabib vs Tony for the real belt and strip Conor, there is no other way.

Agree.

Also, it doesn't really matter what Khabib or Mendez are saying. They don't make the decisions, so these quotes don't mean shit. It's up to Dana, Conor and Tony to work out a deal, or for Dana to strip Conor and go from there.

Sounds like the McChicken is already trying to duck belt defenses.
