    According to Khabib's father they are interested in making Conor Mcgregor VS Khabib Nurmagomedov Rematch, but Boxing only.

    I’d watch it. Mcgregor should prob be a -3 to -400 to win that.

    Id watch it, Khabib outstrip Conor at times and scored the knockdown, although McNugget has to be seen as the favourite.

    It wouldn't surprise me at all if Khabib wins this, despite not being known for his boxing. McGregor was exposed in the Mayweather fight as being featherfisted, Glass Jawed and having no stamina and heart.

    It also wouldn't surprise me if McGregor never wins another big fight again, his head isn't in the game. I can see him going the Mike Tyson route real fast.

    No interest in it tbh - mcgregors fitness and punching looked dreadful in the mayweather fight, he didn't do enough in the cage in the khabib fight, I do like Conor and respect his story and his achievements

    But the more dough he's got the worse he's been, he's got that life changing dough now, he's got popularity, I think he should focus on things other than fighting because i don't think he has the grit any longer to win big fights

    They need to fave face and find something McGregor can actually win. Should have just challenged Khabib to a whiskey drindging contest FFS.

    Probably get tons of no nothing, casuals to buy that as well.

    "IT'S JUST BUSINESS"-Cucknor McGregor.

    Whats the point though? I dont get it....

    I suppose the motive for this would be, for khabib, would be to have the opportunity to take McGregors soul even more, should he win. Right now people say the usual crap of that the only way he can win was to ground and pound him, but should he beat him at boxing, he would actually finish McGregor off just about, imo.

    Other than that though, I dont really get the point of this.

    Probably because Conor no longer has any belief in himself to get it done against Khabib with MMA rules -- even with an extremely lenient referee and the ability to commit multiple fouls without incurring a point deduction.

    That tends to happen when a fighter is dominated and decimated the way McGregor was by Khabib at 229.
