#2 Khabib Nurmagomedov Vs Tony Ferguson Will Happen
Notwithstanding Dana White expressing in October that Tony Ferguson – who is on a wild eleven-battle win streak in the UFC’s most pressed division – would get the following title shot at Lightweight, ongoing reports appear to recommend something else.
To start with, there was a clue from White that a Khabib Nurmagomedov/Conor McGregor rematch for the title could be coming in 2019, and afterward there was a meeting with Khabib’s chief Ali Abdelaziz that recommended his warrior would deny a booking with Ferguson because of the last’s evident powerlessness to bring in pay-per-views.

We are really putting it all on the line notwithstanding and foreseeing that we will – at last – get a title battle among Khabib and Ferguson before the year’s end.
The battle basically bodes well not to be reserved, and we figure fans would be in hubbub in the event that any other individual were allowed a title shot before ‘El Cucuy’; it would start to resemble the circumstance encompassing Tito Ortiz and Chuck Liddell in the mid-2000s, when Ortiz was blamed for dodging ‘The Iceman’.

It may bode well for Khabib to request an adversary who can move more pay-per-sees, however we are not in any case beyond any doubt that a second McGregor battle would draw too, particularly if Conor does not get a success in advance. Furthermore, outside of McGregor, and a colossal curveball like a battle with Georges St-Pierre, no one will draw tremendously close by Khabib – who truly is definitely not a demonstrated “a-side” pay-per-view draw yet at any rate.
The UFC must realize that a Khabib/Ferguson battle bodes well before a forthcoming rematch among Khabib and McGregor, thus I think they will toss cash at ‘The Eagle’ to get it going in the primary portion of 2019 preceding working to a McGregor battle in the last 50% of the year.
