Should Khabib accept a fight with Conor if he's being paid less than him?

In boxing wasnt Cotto the A-side vs Sergio Martinez who was the champ???

So Khabib is obviously the better fighter AND the current title holder.
But like him or not, Conor is still the bigger draw.

If they would finally manage to setup a fight between the two of them it would be one of the biggest UFC fights ever, if the not the biggest, and Conor would probably ask for at least 30 mill or more while Khabib would be offered maybe 2 mill.

Do you think Khabib should accept such a fight just to able to smash the Irish chicken (while making the chicken even more filthy rich in the process) or should he refuse to take any fights were he's getting paid less than the challenger?

What say you?

There are plenty of times when the champ received less than a challenger. Conor made more than Eddie Alvarez for their fight. $3.5M vs $500K.
 
Of course he should, he’s not about to turn into money Khabib, he ain’t worried about a few more pennies

Who else gets even just 1 belt, and doesn't defend it at all before getting stripped while being uninjured the whole time??

He got that belt and immediately went up in weight to fight the champ at the next weight class... that's cowardly? When the champ pulled out and Conor took a late notice replacement for no belt, was that cowardly? When he lost and demanded an immediate rematch, was that cowardly? When he won and then still fought the champ, that must have been cowardly? Or maybe when he switched sports to fight one of the GOATs, an undefeated master of boxing?

You don't have to like him, but that guy calling him a coward is so pathetic you can't really put it into words

Lol yea everyone would've denied a fight making millions fighting floyd. Moving up when he looks like an alien cutting to 145 wow. Like I said the guy has the belt and has now been stripped for not fighting while being uninjured the whole time. I asked who else has done that? but I got no answer

I don't know who has done that. Idk if anybody has.

What does that have to do with the exchange me and that guy we're having? Lol, are you implying he's a coward too?

Ch'mon, lee
 
Nobody knows if Conor is still even allowed to fight.

So why hasn't conor defended his belt when all the other champions in history have? Just wondering
Click to expand...
Which belt? 45? Because he moved to 55. Or 55? Because he took a much more difficult, yet higher paying fight.

The reason why he hasn't defended his belt or setup a fight to defend it is because he had a fight 8 months ago? ohhh ok. Now I got it, thats why everyone whos not a conor nuthugger is calling him a ducker.. makes sense

Lol nuthugger? You got the wrong guy.

He had the biggest fight in UFC history and massive pay day. Take a look at his activity prior to that. I don't fault him for taking time off, tbh. And btw, he was stripped if you haven't been paying attention. That's how these things go lol I'm not sure why you're upset

If he ends up fighting Khabib or tony, will you admit he wasn't ducking?

i said that in atleast 2 of my replies and im not paying attention? Lol at me being upset I replied wondering why you were so upset someone called him a coward, and since over half of sherdog is calling him a coward I'll just leave it at that and hope you feel better
 
it doesn't seem like Khabib needs or fights for money. So maybe he won't fight Conor at all

More than half of sherdog are not smart guys who have no connection to combat sports or martial arts in general.

If you call a pro fighter (and a world champion, no less) a coward, I would wager heavily on you being the coward. In fact I'd guarantee it.
 
Stipe was getting less defending the title than half the HWs were for non title fights and JDS and Overeem got more than him for their title fights against him.

If Khabib tries to get paid more than Conor the fight never gets made as that's never happening.

Because you got so mad at that guy calling him a coward, and you didn't see mcgregor getting stripped for not defending having anything to do with ducking, then told me he had been stripped after I told you that everytime I replied, I would wager you being a mcgregor nuthugger and mad that mma fans are calling him a ducker, actually I'd gaurantee it.
