big poppa pump Posted January 25, 2021 Share Posted January 25, 2021 44 minutes ago, JonStark said: I think they need to strip him now. Dustin's not fighting for another interim and would probably just lobby for the rubber match with Conor over that. Khabib has stated he is retired. That needs to be enough for Dana to move on, and allow for someone else to hold the strap. It really should have been this past fight between Conor and Dustin, that was for the title. If Khabib is still teasing Dana about continuing to fight, then he has some blame in this. I haven't seen anything to prove that is the case. Uncle Dana is trying to hold out hope imo, because he knows how much money is involved with a Khabib/Conor, Dustin, Olivera, Diaz fight.

I definitely agree, but can't Khabib also just vacate the title on his own like Bones just did? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oddsmakers still have him as a slight favorite in the trilogy.... I wanna see olivera get a shot at dustin for the title. Let conor and gaethje slug it out for the shot at the winner Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't, but that's because I want Diamond to get his strap and Olives is a killer. Without having anything invested, that would be a fantastic fight. Had this past fight actually been for the title, I would be all for it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not saying that it's a walkover, but if he is able to keep it on the feet, I don't believe Oli has a chance. I don't care how good his standup has improved, it's not on Porier's level. If it hits the mat, however, then it's a different story. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm gonna go with the elite athlete, that will train like a madman to not be embarrassed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
