UFC Lightweight champion Khabib Nurmagomedov has said it pretty loud and clear that he wants one man for his first title defence and that is ex-champ Conor McGregor. Speaking to the latest episode of Anatomy of a Fighter, the Russian said: “If they want to make money, let’s go – Khabib versus Conor. Country versus country, fans versus fans. It’s going to be very big, one of the biggest.” Khabib crowned UFC Lightweight champion after defeating Alexandre Al Iaquinta McGregor (the then Featherweight champion) defeats Eddie Alvarez to win the Lightweight belt and become a two-division champion Khabib added that he thinks him vs McGregor is the biggest match-up in the UFC history and that keeping aside the bus incident, and other altercations, his motive is just to fight the Irishman. The UFC champion’s comments come a few days after president Dana White said no deal is close yet for the fight between the two fighters. “You know what, I’m not even thinking about Conor till – I’m serious. We’re not talking about a fight right now,” Dana White said. Khabib has been chasing McGregor ever since the Irishman fought the then Lightweight champion Eddie Alvarez to become a two-division champion. And it seems as if the Irishman has finally started to throw a few hints here and there. But nothing is concrete yet, except for the fact that Khabib knows what he wants next.
