Ever since the dominant win over Conor McGregor, the UFC lightweight champion, Khabib Nurmagomedov has become a global superstar. He headlined a monumental event in Abu Dhabi, defending his title against Dustin Poirier. And he will take on Tony Ferguson next in the main event of UFC 249. According to UFC president, Dana White if Khabib gets past Ferguson then Conor vs Khabib rematch is the fight to make. However, Khabib’s manager, Ali Abdelaziz is not entertaining the rematch at all.
Abdelaziz talked about what is next for Khabib Nurmagomedov after Ferguson and said that as per the ranking Justin Gaethje should get the next title shot. He made it clear that if Conor wants to fight Khabib Nurmagomedov in a rematch then he must do more than beating 36 years old veteran, Donald Cerrone. Conor will have to fight guys like Justin Gaethje, and Islam Makachev to earn the rematch with Khabib Nurmagomedov. Conor McGregor will have to beat relevant fighters in the division.

It’s certainly possible that Khabib Nurmagomedov fights Floyd Mayweather down the lane. And if that kind of money is involved then UFC is likely to make the fight in Saudi Arabia. However, Khabib will have to overcome Tony Ferguson first. Tony Ferguson has been steamrolling his opponents inside the octagon for years now. And beating him is not going to be an easy task for the lightweight champion.
Who do you want to see Khabib fight if he gets past Tony Ferguson, Conor McGregor or Floyd Mayweather?
