  1. The way I see it, Khabib fights Poirier next and then the fun starts with him vs either Tony or Ortega

  2. khabib didn't call out porier alone as u said, u wrong, he called out all 5 of them , conor tony eddy porier and lee

  3. Chael is way too serious here. Who cares if the champion has a preference on who he fights next? And when did Khabib call out Dustin anyway? He said he was ready for whoever was next, and if that was Dustin, then it's Dustin.

  4. Chael u dumb fuck how the fuck does lee get a title shot by missing weight?? Lol

  5. Well, Chael, as several people have pointed out, you have several reasons why you are wrong.
    #1 Kevin Lee lost his last "title shot" two fights ago and had an issue with his weight cut. In addition to that, he just missed weight in his last fight. So, that sort of shows he isn't ready for a title shot.
    #2 Ramadan is coming up, and Khabib is out until after that.
    #3 Khabib should be ready by what, September to November? He has 3 options ahead of Kevin Lee that would theoretically be ready by then.
    # 3A The former champ, who if he (Conor) is able to fight by November is there, assuming he isn't in Jail. Every fan wants to see this, and is significantly more profitable than Lee.
    # 3B Tony Ferguson who was the Interim Champ and beat Lee for that Title. So he definitely is above Lee. Unrightly was stripped, and absolutely deserves to fight Khabib. Not to mention that is the second most popular probable fight for fans.
    # 3C The winner of Poreir and Eddie.

    So, I know you want Kevin to fight Khabib, he will get his chance, but it isn't yet. I just technically gave you 5/6 reasons why you are wrong.

  6. I think the Eddie vs Dustin winner fights for the title. Kevin takes the loser. Between weight issues and a pretty average UFC record Kevin still has to work for another title shot.

    Speaking strictly as a fan, I'd like to see Dustin finally get a shot. However I think Eddie has a better chance stylistically and Kevin probably has the best shot of the 3.

  7. I want 2 see justin ghaetje VS kevin lee. Ghaetje would fuck this cocky lee up
