I really hope they do hold up the ufc on this one, provided he gets past Tony, which will be very difficult.
If anyone is in a position to stop or at least highlight this thing of top contenders being bypassed for bigger money fights. Just like with Aldo and Romero getting title shots too, Khabib seems like he would be the type of guy to stick to his principles on this. And let’s not forget how lots of people were calling Aldo insane thinking he should get a rematch with Conor but when the shoe is on the other foot it’s a different story.
