Baroni, I'm gonna respond to the first message first, because Nightgunner also posted this.

Well he said,
Khabib : "After this fight he's gonna go back to boxing".

Conor : After Mayweather fight I made a lot of money I could have retired.

Khabib: You come here for money, I come here for legacy.

From this:
I don't see him criticising Conor taking the Mayweather fight, but he's criticising him for focusing on money.

I remember Khabib critisizing Conor for not defending the belt and holding division for 1+ year,
because of Floyd fight.

Seriously, why can't you just wait 2-3 month longer. Is it really that big of an issue? What will it change?

It's not like he's ducking the fight or holding the division hostage by going to boxing for a year.

At least Conor was bringing new viewers to MMA with the biggest crossover fight ever. Even Silva couldn't get the Roy Jones Jnr fight signed. Before you started watching MMA everyone wanted that boxing/mma fight.

It took 5 seconds for everyone to jump on Conor for holding the belt up.
Khabib keeps getting pass after pass. Months & months between fights with no excuse or injury. Just sitting out.
You can't defend that. At all. It's hypocrisy.
