Ar first sight MMA fans were pissed of this weird match up. One of the best LWs around against a newcomer to the UFC. But it makes total sense:
1. Khabib would have a "warm-up" fight after hus long layoff.
2. Khabib needs to get some cash.
3. Khabib and the UFC expect to have an easy, fast, harmless fight, so The Eagle would be available to fight after a few months against a real contender: Ferguson or RDA.
