    Dana is really ****** if he thinks Floyd would fight the MMA. Why would he? Is he as broke as James Toney?
    Khabib will have to fight in the boxing ring because boxing is part of the MMA and not there other way round. Floyd Makes money, Khabib makes money and White makes money. Is it because Dana doesnt want to see his top fighters getting embarrassed in the boxing ring?

      I don't honestly want to see it in a boxing fight. I rather it be kick boxing with no grabbling. Also don't sanction the fight either.

        Ray Mercer went to MMA and won by KO. Anything is possible.

          Dana was willing to let Conor do that because he knew the publicity would be good for MMA because Conor is a crossover star and cash cow for MMA.

          Dana knows Kabib will not bring the same added revenue and relevance to MMA so he isn't going to allow Kabib to do what he allowed conor to.

            I saw some TMZ video with Khabib's manager saying they would gladly do boxing. But that can't happen without White's approval so yeah, not happening lol.

              Only way this would be a fair fight is if Khabib and Mayweather are allowed to use elbows, and kicks in the match.

                Dana can’t allow another freak show to diminish his assets. Khabib is one of the people I’d still pay to see in the streaming age but not a ****** boxing match. Enough already with that BS.

                  Floyd Broke: Will get in cage

                  Floyd is broke. Again. Did circus act in a Japan. Desperate. Dumb-azz. Thst’s What happens when you buy $17 million dollar watches. NO watch is worth a million Dumb-ass. The ***elers see him coming n but all over the place. Same as exotic car dealers. But the biggest reason for Floyd being doomed to being a greeter at MGM in a few years is that he is a degenerate gambler. He lives in Vegas but still believes that “smart” gamblers can beat the house and go so regularly. He has Allen Iverdon disease and Iverson went through 200 million. Floyd has it much worse as he bets bigger amounts. It’s inevitable because he’s already liquidated almost a billion dollars. No man in dports or biz history has lost a billion dollars when that’s the only billion they have—except Floyd Mayweather. What a dumb-azz. UFC knows his habits well. They know he’s dying for a cash infusion n he would rather steal from the public one more time with a Kaibib in boxing ring farce. But his manager is laughing at Floyd cuzz he knows he’s desperate. So Floydbis begging him for a boxing match. No way it happens. Do Floyd will try again to fleece the dumb-azzes that bought his Conner fight with a bout against PacMan. Dummies will
                  Only be half-as-dumb this time, but hey, $150 mil is another Floyd steal. PacMan is the only guy equally as ****** as Floyd about money. He’s broke too Taxman gonna tax that azz. Owes $18 mil here AND $75 mil in Philipines. Lol.
                  Pac will end up
                  In penitentiary for tax fraud n Floyd shaking hands at MGM.

                    Exactly. Conor was a huge start, khabib isn't. This fight wont make them 100 mill like Floyd-conor.
                    People won't fall for the trap a second time. Especially that Khabib isn't even a striker.

                    I understood Floyd-Conor but Fliyd-Khabib wont happen

                      Not sure if Khabib wants to stand firm, he may lose out on that life changing payday.
