America 10,996 Report post Posted January 1, 2019 UFC President Dana White said he expects a rematch between Conor McGregor and Khabib Nurmagomedov sometime this year. "I think a lot of people want to see that fight. Obviously, again, we still haven't gone before the Nevada State Athletic Commission. That's got to happen, and when that does, we can figure how this whole thing plays out," White told TMZ Sports. "Guys are going to have to win," White continued. "It depends on how long the suspensions are. ... But as long as everything goes right, this fight should happen [in 2019]." Nurmagomedov defeated McGregor via submission in the fourth round of their highly anticipated bout at UFC 229 in October. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I_Take_Roids_m8 32,696 Report post Posted January 1, 2019 One of the biggest problems with Jones taking roids is the fact that he is the biggest pillow fisted can in the whole UFC. Hasn't knocked out anyone by hands.... EVER 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mcmax3000 31,818 Report post Posted January 1, 2019 In theory, him saying "Guys are going to have to win" means that it won't be an automatic rematch but he expects both guys to win their next fight and then rematch each other...

PlatinumClegg 47,717 Report post Posted January 2, 2019 7 hours ago, iamdylanr said: They will give Conor a fight he should win, like the Poirier rematch, then do another Khabib fight. Conor is guaranteed to be a main event. Just because he sparked Poirier at featherweight where he had no chin 4 years ago doesn't mean he'd do it again. That was hungry and prime Conor. If Conor doesn't put him away inside 8 minutes he'll get finished himself late in the fight. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
zaksame 756 Report post Posted January 2, 2019 Sounds like Tony is not the guy according to Khabib's manager. It is all about $$$,this UFC has been a circus for quite some time.I keep hearing it is Shelby making the matchups,i don't see it,i think Dana is making the decisions. His manager said he NEEDS to see big ppv numbers and believes Tony can't bring that.Also odd he kept saying they want GSP but then mentions something about Dana and GSP not on good terms so doesn't think we see GSP too soon. I definitely see a rematch.it is the biggest money fight for Dana and the uFC and since they pay Conor way too much,this is the fight. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Furiousmat 148 Report post Posted January 4, 2019 (edited) The UFC is pretty consistent at becoming more and more of a joke. I find it hard to care anymore. They're not even trying to claim the're putting the best against the best anymore. They cover drug cheats, manufacture "historic" events and rendered the belts meaningless. Sure. Have this clown fight yet again for a belt he will refuse to defend if he wins it. Edited January 4, 2019 by Furiousmat Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
