Man Vs ManUre wrote: » Khabib vs Poirier won’t sell well I agree. Poirier brings no drama to the fight so buildup will be dull, tho doesn’t mean he can’t beat khabib. Maybe fact that it will be happening in Dubai means it will sell more outside of US. Khabib vs Ferguson would have sold a lot more, tho still nowhere near Conor levels. No other can sell like Conor, which makes it such a shame that he fights so rarely now. I know he just injured his arm, so looks like autumn at the earliest that he will fight. And he doesn’t seem keen on fighting anyone other than khabib for the title.

Man Vs ManUre wrote: » I think it is khabib’s side that is more reluctant to commit to the rematch. Not because he thinks he would lose it, but more because it’s a bigger punishment to Conor to deprive him of the chance to redeem himself. Khabib has become a superstar as result of that fight, more so than he will get from any future fight. Now all he has to do to make more millions is show up at events and speak about it. And if he fights for another few years and remains undefeated before he retires, even if he keeps refusing to fight Conor again, his legend status will remain unchanged, and he will continue to make millions. I hope the rematch will happen, there is nothing better than a Conor fight and the more challenging competitor the better.

Autecher wrote: » Conor's interview with Tony Robbins from a few weeks ago. It starts at 3:12, he talks about the Khabib fight at 24 minutes. He is honest about some things but also the usual nonsense about Khabib being afraid of Conor & him landing a lucky punch. I turned it off after that but for anyone interested here you are.
