Why Did the UFC Bury Possible Fight of the Year in Dustin Poirier vs. Nate Diaz?

Don't let tunnel vision happen to you.

Friday's booking of Conor McGregor versus Khabib Nurmagomedov for the latter's UFC lightweight title set the MMA world ablaze. Its biggest star, one of its best champions, two compelling but competing styles and a lot of bad blood. The sport offers no better combination.

If you noticed a narrowing sensation in your eyesight upon hearing the news, know you are not alone. Symptoms include an inability to see anything aside from Conor-Khabib and a near-total loss of perspective. If you notice yourself experiencing these symptoms, take heart.
