Khabib is dumb for being over there. He should have been in the states. If anything I say he’s ducking
Khabib said Dana told him that the fight was "99% happening in the United Arab Emirates" so Khabib flew out there and was denied entrance so he went home. Now he's stuck in Russia.
I just wanna see Gaethje fight for the belt. He really deserves it. I know a 3 fight W streak isn't super impressive but all first round KO's against top 10 opponents and Khabib has already fought everyone between himself and Gaethje besides Ferguson. Also has 7 performance bonuses in 6 fights in the UFC so you know its gonna be a sick fight every time.
Tony doesn't need to take another fight. He's been on such a tear that one loss is going to stop him from fighting Khabib...again. Even if he won the Justin fight, he would probably take a lot of damage in doing so. That's such a dangerous fight and I like it as a fan, but I'd rather him wait it out. UFC needs to start giving guys some tune up fights. I don't mean fighting some cab driver, but it doesn't hurt to fight someone ranked 12-20 that isn't ever going to be in the title picture to keep your name out there and add another highlight reel.
