Gunning For Mixed Boxing & MMA Fight
Khabib Nurmagomedov says he's down to fight Floyd Mayweather ... but The Eagle is floating the idea of a mixed boxing/MMA match!!
"Like maybe 11 rounds boxing, 1 round MMA," Khabib tells TMZ Sports.
Of course, Khabib and Floyd have flirted heavily with the idea of a fight for years ... with Nurmagomedov's manager, Ali Abdelaziz, telling us TBE has been "begging" for a scrap.
In fact, Ali says they even got a $100 MILLION offer from some powerful Saudis to put on the fight in the Middle East!!
But talks haven't advanced between the two sides ... and when we asked Khabib about it this week -- he says it's because he straight-up doesn't want a boxing-only matchup.
