Khabib Nurmagomedov threatens to leave UFC if Zubaira Tukhugov fired

[skins85]

sure hope they dont let him walk although id pay to see him fight anywhere. was hoping at the outside chance to see gsp vs khabib since ive always loved watching them fight.
dont care about the heavyweight division since i think the matchup with cormier and lewis sucks. ufc seems to need khabib more than he needs them. all they can offer him is money which he doesnt care about. ufc only cares and people would pay to see him fight again. letting him walk would hurt the ufc. cant have the best fighter in the game going somewhere else.

skins hurts mma fans more than it hurts the ufc .. his fight style is boring .. i love and respect wrestling jiu jitsu and grappling .. but i dont like khabibs sambo style ..too much holding

and same as nick diaz says about holding a guy and then these little punches that arnt gonna KO someone .. khabibs extreme amount of holding is not my preferance .. khabibs submission game very limited its
not exciting darce chokes like ferguson and its not hanging guillotines like ortega

his neck crank / choke was good tho

It seems to me that most fighters would have opportunities to choke their opponent out but simply pass on even attempting it...

yeah kind of agree here. like where else would he make the money he's going to make in the UFC ??
even though he told White to shove the $2mil

Let him walk...

The two mods saying “let him walk.”

How surprising. Too much pride between you two.

Mcgregor is exposing himself to get paid and if he goes on a 3-4 fight losing streak, they may lean on someone else to be their superstar. Khabib was like a GGG in boxing. But he isn’t 36 years old and he just fought the biggest name in the ufc and whooped his ass. His future and bigger fights are ahead of him. Letting him leave isn’t a good business move. Khabib not going anywhere. He says all that brother shit but he knows #1 thing is about his legacy.

He's one of the most honorable men in the UFC. I could see him leaving if Dana pisses him off.

no don't watch it regularly or maybe I just didn't want to try to pronounce his name but don't really remember the guy

My bad...

Just figured when someone calls Superfoot Wallace the best MMA fighter ever, and then follows it up with they have no idea who Khabib is, then they surely have to be clowning around. I did laugh, though, so all good...

50 cent knows whatsup. Good businessman. Trying to get him to fight for Bellator, where 50 is invested. Says UFC is fucking up.
