Khabib Nurmagomedov continues to campaign hard for a fight between fellow ex-champion Charles Oliveira and his close friend Islam Makhachev. Now, “The Eagle” has upped the gamesmanship.
In a recent interview with ESPN’s Brett Okamoto, Khabib welcomed the idea of a potential fight against “Do Bronx” in Brazil. He also confidently laid out their strategy en route to victory.
“I hear, like, they wanna make big show in Brazil, like December. OK, December is good date for Islam, too. If they wanna come to Abu Dhabi, fight with Islam, OK,” he said.
