Just pay Khabib. WTF.

[West Linn]

yes conor show money was 3 million but he pocked closer to 20 million in total

He should be getting PPV points as a champion. I don't get what the hold up is about.

He’ll be paid just fine. Never settle for the first offer guys, this is all tactics. Be patient for a bit, seems like most everyone wants this fight now.

 

[209 Life]

Conor gets 28 million, Khabibi 2 million. Khabibi isn't worth more than that

 

[HHJ]

This is the biggest money fight khabib will ever get. Any negotiations to fight w conor will be like this. You open the talks w huge number. You can always go down but never back up.

conor been ducking him simple.

 

[ThulsaDooom]

Probably not enough when every other UFC "star" can't even sniff half a million ppv buys.

Khabib is champ? Lol, beating a #12 ranked fighter who had 3 days notices is a joke. The UFC is such a clusterfuck these days.

 

[JudoThrowFiasco]

Strip him and give the belt back to Conor -- then he'll fight him for what his contract says or lose his shot to the next guy

 

[flowoftruth]

McGregor didn't even make 7 mil. His purse was 3 mil.

Khabib is being deluded by the Floyd money. This isn't boxing. He's asking for too much. Point blank period.

You don't even know how much he's asking for. All he said is he wants more than his normal contract which is around 200000

 

[Nightgunner05]

What makes you guys think there is a hold up anyway? For all we know they could have already signed and it'll be announced tomorrow at the press conference.

ariel already said the main even for ufc 230 wont be said at the presser.

why reward conor for ducking khabib and being ok to be stripped in the first place instead of fighting khabib.

But I thought Conor vs Khabib was gonna be for 229?

 

[Shano123]

Won't be announced as the presser then I take it??

Because Conor is the only reason this kind of money is even in the realm of possibility -- Khabib wants the hold the fight and can because he's the title holder -- Conor never lost, take the belt away from Khabib and he'll sign to fight for whatever his contract says.

Makes the title vacant and have them fight for undisputed moniker for all I care.

so far it all fake news saying conor fighting anyone. all we know for a fact is conor is ducking khabib unril he standing in a cage waiting for khabib to walk into it.

as champ khabib get a new contract. so if he fights conor or not he getting a huge raise anyway.

I get there be more ppb buys fighting conor than dustin.

 

[Oooxente]

Pay him half of Connies purse plus PPV points.

Connie is a cheap whiskey /chicken sandwich spokesperson but he is a popular one.

Bolded: 100% this. Khabib’s wise not to rush. He may not get what he asks for, but he’ll do just fine out of this.



Except the bit where he gets knocked out, but he’ll be paid handsomely for his trouble.
