Given the last 4 attempts at making this fight happen... what is the likelihood that this happens?

Of course, Khabib must win tonight - hopefully he will.

But what say you? Conor vs Khabib definitely will not happen in Russia (I don't see why some sherdoggers think it will), so Ferguson vs Nurmagomedov is a better fight imo. Maybe this fight is cursed because of the USA.. maybe fighting outside of N. America will make it better, lol.

But this all depends on how long Ferguson will be out.
 
I dont think Ferg will be ready by Fall. This LCL surgery requires at least 8 months out. For 4 months you cant even exert hamstring and it has to be immobilized. Then rehab and camp tack on another 4 months.
 
How about they don’t even announce it till that night. Dana comes out and says we have a treat for you and says they’re both fighting, TONIGHT!!!

Maybe the make a FN in Moscow, and a bigger event next year when Ferguson is ready. Aside from a dormant McGregor, Ferguson is obviously the first choice for Khabib/whoever wins the title tonight.

Not really. I was back in training after 2 months. For people who do nothing (no training) and have no muscles to support the area around, it takes long time. For athletes the recovery rate is much, much faster.
 
Fergie will definitely slip on ice there or get poisoned or some shit.
 
Injureson would just trip on Red Square and the fight would get cancelled again
 
Ferg's never fighting Khabib. Khabib has 3 fights left after tonight. He's retiring at 30-0. SO that leaves Conor,GSP,Holloway,Orteaga, Lee. 3 out of those 5.
 
I just don't see them making a huge fight like that in Russia due to the time difference. I think that even Khabib has said something similar.
 
Not unless khabib cleans division and wrecks Conor. Even then only if it's making ufc millions. So probably not as Tony won't have the big name.

Why you think Conor vs Khabib in Russia won’t work?
 
Ferguson vs Groovy Lando II would be a really good fight for this Russian card, but way too risky.
