As the news of their potential clash between Khabib and St-Pierre is picking up heat, Kevin Lee, an American MMA fighter who is #10 in the UFC lightweight rankings, has offered his services for the retired former champion.

Kevin Lee wants to Help in St-Pierre Preparations

Kevin was out of play for 12 weeks because of an ACL surgery on his left leg. He is slated to get another surgery on his right knee, too.

This will keep him from fighting for a long time this year. The man has an 18-6-0 MMA record and believes he will be healthy by the time the Khabib-Pierre fight gets official.

Speaking in an interview he said, “I’ll be healthy by then, I’ll be ready to come back and I’ll be fighting and training.”

He confidently added, “I’m doing my camp up at Tristar where Georges is. So when he gets ready for that fight, I’m gonna be in his corner. I’ll be part of his training camp to help him get ready for that.”

He strongly feels he understands Khabib’s game, and said, “I feel I know Khabib’s game in and out and we’re gonna come up with something really nice.”

Khabib Nurmagomedov vs Georges St-Pierre

Khabib has already given signals that he wishes to retire after winning his 30th fight. The undefeated Russian is fighting Justin Gaethje in the UFC 254 main event.

This fight in itself is a very huge fight, given the stardom that The Highlight brings in. Also, Khabib will want to seal a victory to pay tribute to his late father, who recently passed away.

Georges St-Pierre last fought almost two years ago when he defeated Michael Bisping by submission.

He gave an interview to RDS where he said, as reported by the Dailymail, “If the UFC has something to ask of me and offer to make that I couldn’t refuse, they just call me, they know where to find me.”

This match would definitely be one of the greatest matches in the history of UFC.
