same, not cool at all.
Are UFC retirements like boxing retirements?
Not with this guy, he's not motivated by money or fame. Believe him when he says he promised his mother.
Agree. He is a bit of a boy scout. He may come back if he runs out of money but I don't think he will pull a McGregor with his entrepreneurial hiatus and need for fame.
Don't think he will run out of money.
29-0 GOAT.
Goat he is but damn it's boring watching his fights. Same recipe of a leg control wrestling. His best fight was still the surprise strike on McGregor.
He is no Tyson Fury goat.
just a tactic stay retired for a while, will get paid bigger money to come back and fight
He should fight GSP. Can't believe this 32 year old is letting himself get grounded into retirement. Still in his prime too.
He lost his father and all that he has now is non-worthy opponents in McChicken and Poirier who he has previously mauled & then choked. GSP is currently in retirement so I think there is still a chance that Khabib will come back for one last fight with GSP. As for his legacy, I think he has sealed it off in a great way. A humble, intelligent human being that has qualities of a lost generation of human, completely unheard of except in folklore.
Just built different
Robert Whittaker won so we might see a rematch with Israel Adesanya.
It won't be good for his mental health that's for sure.
Maybe put a spoiler alert… Just ruined this for me..
