Khabib Nurmagomedov‘s legacy in the MMA world is undoubtedly one of the greatest. His retirement sent shockwaves through the entire community. Remaining undefeated and retiring with an unblemished record is a dream many aspire to, but the Dagestani fighter made it a reality. Since stepping away from the octagon, the former lightweight champion has gradually shifted his focus away from MMA. However, is there a chance we might see his return?

Team Khabib and their manager, Ali Abdelaziz have time and time again stated that there’s a possibility of Khabib Nurmagomedov’s return to the world of MMA. Will there be a return of the star? or is it another teaser? Well the MMA community is in splits with Ali Abdelaziz’s tweet.

Will Khabib Nurmagomedov ever return?

Khabib Nurmagomedov gracefully exited the spotlight at the pinnacle of his career. The untimely passing of his father served as the catalyst for his retirement. Since relinquishing his title as the former lightweight champion, Khabib has distanced himself from the MMA realm. Nevertheless, a flicker of optimism regarding his potential return occasionally emerges, often fueled by the efforts of his manager Ali Abdelaziz.

In his most recent escapade, Ali Abdelaziz added a tweet on his X( formerly Twitter) handle and this has caused a storm among the MMA community. The tweet somehow gave a mysterious hint of ‘Eagle’s return back to the MMA. Abdelaziz writes “If a fantasy @TeamKhabib Come back 1- April become the 185 lb champion 2- July become 205 lb Champion 3- December become 170lb Champion Vs Alex Pereira ’ Israel, Adesanya ‘ [Leon] Edward I truly believe this statistically bad nightmare for all these guys”

The UFC head honcho is trying his level best to chip in the old stars of the UFC for a legacy fight but it seems like he has achieved nothing as of now. Insiders revealed that among the legacy fights, White had plans to bring Khabib Nurmagomedov out of retirement by offering him a lot of money.

Daniel Cormier revealed on his YouTube handle that Dana White offered a massive $40 million to ‘Eagle’ to headline the UFC 300. “They offered $40 million Khabib for returning to the UFC” Replying to Cormier and White, Numragomedov had one thing to say “I hope someday these conversations will stop.”
