Khabib Nurmagomedov has his sights set on Georges St-Pierre

[LSD]

While the vast majority of MMA fans want to see Khabib Nurmagomedov vs. Conor McGregor next, Nurmagomedov’s manager now says they’ve set their sights elsewhere.

“We believe the fight to make is the Georges St-Pierre fight at 155 pounds,” Ali Abdelaziz said. “Khabib wants to fight for legacy and not for a soap opera drama show, and we think Conor doesn’t deserve this opportunity. The guy hasn’t fought in almost two years. Why does he deserve to fight for the title? He should get his ass back in the line and work his way up.”

Khabib is a beast. He's great.

But GSP is a different kind of beast. He's the greatest.

How do you say "good luck" in Russian?

 

[SuperNerd]

Khabib wants Conor. He doesn't want to say it.

He's playing it cool instead being another little boy who is chasing the pretty girl around.

Omg that crazy russian is invincible holy shit call the kremlin hes a madman

 

[Death By Samson]

He's right about Conor not deserving the title shot but GSP sure as hell doesn't deserve it either.

GSP is a far easier fight.

Idk, I hope he faces LW challenges first. He beat Iaquinta (not his fault that Ferguson pulled out), but he would look more like a champion if he defeated Alvarez, Poirier, or Ferguson (when the time comes).

cпасибо.

 

[SOAzmayesh]

Lmao at Khabib, his family, his trainers and his bullshit logic.
Guy avoids top ranked fighters like the plague.

 

[Krixes]

GSP is 37 years old now, Khabib will beat him.

 

[binny]

It just feels so silly at 155. Khabib struggles to make LW. GSP never has. I'm interested in the fight but not so much like this. The cutting will probably only diminish things.

 

[Rear Nakey]

Khabib is feeling pretty invincible after tooling that real estate agent.

Please be joking...

Truth is he knows Conor is never going to fight him and also that Conor will NEVER fight in the UFC again.

So he picks the next best MONEY fight opponent.....GSP.
