    UFC got a cut of Mayweather/McGregor so they'd likely get a cut of Mayweather/Khabib, but I can't find any sources for the percentages of their cut, to confirm

        Yup no doubt and I would bet Khabib is willing to take next to nothing because he thinks he can win.

          I could waste time & show you a bunch of headlines of past sh^t that ain't happening. I'm not sure it'll sway your opinion doe.

          But again I say if this fight was going to be happening Floyd would be the one talking about it & Khabib & his dumb ass manager woulda signed an NDA to stfu or not hint about it.

            And Nurmagomedov has revealed talks with Russian officials over a fight at Moscow’s Luzhniki Stadium are underway.
            So are they fighting in Dubai or Moscow?

                IF it does happen I would say Dubai. But thats just a wild guess.

                Like I said, I think Khabib thinks he can beat anyone and its NOT about the money. The dude lives with his parents and wife and kids in a hut. So Floyd seeing he could make a cash grab and make 90% I think he would grab it. Why not? Easy money.

                  If he's suspended, & he's not suspended long term right now & Conor is suspended to still actually, the last thing Dana would be cool with is to have him fight someone "off the grid" so to speak like this.

                  Dana okaying that might actually get Dana in trouble with the NSAC in fact or at best its a bad look for the UFC/Dana. Athletic commissions have actually banned various MMA leagues from operating in the US for allowing banned fighters fighting on their card. This wouldn't quite be that sorta situation, but its in the realm of crossing the NSAC & the last thing the UFC wants is the NSAC pissed at them.

                    Floyd owns Vegas. Money makes the world go round.

                      If it happens, it'll be in Vegas. Floyd isn't going to Russia to fight a Russian national or Dubai to fight a ******.
