UFC's Dana White Rules out Khabib Nurmagomedov vs. Georges St-Pierre Fight

Dana White appears close to talking Khabib Nurmagomedov out of a brief retirement. However, if Nurmagomedov does return for a 30th fight, it won't be against Georges St-Pierre.

"Nope," White told reporters Saturday after the UFC on ABC 1 event. "GSP never came up. (Nurmagomedov) isn't interested in that fight. From what I hear today, after that, neither is GSP. So, that's over."

Khabib-GSP had been a fight both stars hinted at in the past, but it appears both parties want to go in a different direction. White said Conor McGregor, Dustin Poirier, Michael Chandler, Dan Hooker and Charles Oliveira were discussed among potential bouts for Khabib.
