Khabib on multiple occasions stated before that he ended all the business with Conor McGregor and he isn’t interested in fighting him again. In his latest press conference at Moscow, ‘The Eagle’ says, “First of all, White will offer money, I think. I choked both of them out. There’s no sporting interest there. Both of them tapped”.

Imagine someone offered you $100 million to fight, that will be a problem: Khabib

“If there’s money. Imagine someone offered you $100 million that will be a problem. In sporting terms, I don’t see any interest there.” When Khabib was asked about his future plans he further added, “Let me enjoy it, it’s nice to be the current champion, Why do you want to take the belt off me straight away?”

“I haven’t honestly thought about it. It will remain like that until I see him.” With this statement, the ‘Eagle of Dagestan’ clearly stated that for now, he has no plans to come back to the Octagon. He has moved on from MMA and for now, he is working on other plans that are bigger for him right now.
