“I bounced up and bet his brother and his cousin round” – Conor McGregor

Conor wasn’t happy when a fan tweeted, referencing Conor’s recent statements that he won 3 out of 4 rounds against Khabib. The fan’s tweet read, “This is the face of a man who won 3 out 4 with Khabib.” Conor hit back tweeting, “Ye, not a scratch. Relaxing before I bounced up and bet his brother and his cousin round.” These words show that, Conor still isn’t convinced with the Russian’s victory over him at UFC 229, two years ago.

Well, going by the looks of it, the MMA world and of course, “The Notorious” himself will be looking forward to beating Dustin Poirier, so that he can have a shot at Khabib Nurmagomedov again. But, the Dagestani fighter, hasn’t showed even one bit of interest, maintaining that he wouldn’t fight Conor even if he was offered a truckload of cash. What do you think? Is Khabib vs Conor brewing? Or will Khabib stick to his word?
