Let’s just all accept the fact that McGregor is 100% going to fight Khabib again if he gets another win.
After beating Cerrone, McGregor’s next opponent could very likely end up being Jorge Masvidal. If that happens and he gets a win, then you can 100% guarantee Khabib will be in the near future.

It’s the fight everybody wants to see. It’s the fight UFC fans are drooling over after what happened at UFC 229.
Dana White knows how to move the needle and make money. A rematch in Moscow would set the roof on fire. It’d be raining money on everybody involved.
You best believe McGregor, Khabib, and White all want that to happen. It’s not a matter of if it’ll happen. It’s simply a matter of when it’ll happen, if Conor can get another win.

Go, Conor, go!
