A UFC spokesperson has confirmed that a second fight between Khabib Nurmagomedov and McGregor will take place.
“Eagle” in any case will be forced to go to the fight with Conor McGregor, regardless of whether Khabib loses the championship title to Ferguson or simply continues to refuse to fight the Irishman, Michael Riesling (UFC commentator) commented on the situation.
The reason for this decision is the high broadcast sales of their first fight, which has become a record in the history of the UFC, so the second fight will bring even more money, especially if you take into account the conflict that arose between McGregor and Nurmagomedov after the first fight.
