Update

Good for him. He promised his mum after all

 

[Joinho10]

lol that's cute.

 

[Marko Polo]

The worst thing Dana could do is to insinuate Khabib is actually coming back. You have to just leave him to come to his own decisions

 

[Hellowhosthat]

Figured he'd be more interesting in farming chickens than sheep.

 

[Kansu]

He's coming back, 100%. Why would you dedicate all your life to fighting, and then stop at 32 years of age.

 

[Portland8242]

Khabib retiring resurfaced Dana's PTSD from when GSP retired in his prime and Dana's still in the denial phase. Except this is a potentially bigger cash cow than GSP.

 

[Raffen]

But Dana said he's coming back.

 

[Morris88]

How long before Dana starts shitting on him like he did with GSP

 

[lolo 06]

He's coming back, 100%. Why would you dedicate all your life to fighting, and then stop at 32 years of age.

I m not sure about it
He had alot of injuries,his father just died (rip) and he achivied his goal.
Like you said he dedicated all his life to fighting,maybe he doesn t have the same drive and passion about it

What the hell? He became champ in the most stacked devision, and p4p #1 ranked, just to study a masters in farming after???? lol.

Respect tho, never expected him to do any type of studying being a mountain guy lol.

 

[Bork Neslar]

Good for him. Too bad his fanboys will never shut up

 

[austinblair]

Let the man retire. He’s 32, King of the UFC LWs, his coach/dad died, he’s already mega rich, why can’t he earn a degree if that makes him happy?

IMO Khabib is acting like the most intelligent man to ever retire from a pro sport.

 

[Mesos]

Idk to me it sounds like a maybe later kind of answer. Hes saying he wants to focus on other things but cant tell you the countless times fighters say that then get bored in a few years so they unretire.

I can see Khabib wanting to fight again in 2 years

 

[burningspear]

I wonder if the simple life will be enough for him anymore?

He’s getting a degree in Economics, he’s not studying any sort of animal husbandry or agriculture lmao that’s just a side thing

 

[HNIC215]

He's basically saying GSP or NOTHING!!

 

[TempleoftheDog]

All of this could change. If he's done, he deserves to go out on his terms. Just like every other champion. It's just that most of them never knew when it was time to get out, until it was too late.

We'll see what happens. Best of luck to him.

 

[The Chosen]

All Khabib needs is his religion, family, and friends/brothers. He’s always been a simple man.

 

[Pancake Sprawl]

He's coming back, 100%. Why would you dedicate all your life to fighting, and then stop at 32 years of age.

maybe because he's proven that he has mastered it and is bored/burnt out on doing something his whole life?

i don't think he's coming back. what's the point? he doesn't need money, he doesn't really give a shit what people think of him, he seemed to be in it for himself and his father and now that his father is gone i think he's done too.
