It’s the fantasy MMA matchup everyone wants to see: Khabib Nurmagomedov vs. Georges St-Pierre.
Dana White had previously shot down any talk of the matchup but the UFC president seems to be warming up to the idea, telling ESPN’s Brett Okamoto last week that he ‘would do anything Khabib wanted to do’ for his final fight in the UFC.
St-Pierre — for his part — is also interested in the bout, telling ESPN’s Ariel Helwani that he is open to a comeback fight against Nurmagomedov.
St-Pierre’s training partner Kevin Lee said he is excited about the prospect of helping his teammate prepare for the biggest fight of his career.
