they say that Habib flew a private flight to the United States. Is this true or a joke? It's just that on our mainland on April 1, humorist’s day

I read his post on social networks. But the question then is, why not cancel the battle or replace it? Why is the information not updated?

Habib really took advantage of this situation and left for his homeland. And they say that he thinks 99.9% sure that the battle will be in the UAE. This will be 5 times as the battle did not take place? Habib is important in regoring.

I don’t blame Khabib, maybe he doesn’t want to endanger family, friends etc

As much as I was looking forward to it I really think this fight needs an audience. Just adds to the atmosphere to the fight.

What’s another 6 months in the grand  scheme of things, we waited 4 years already

Maybe it never happens....

Although there is gatheje/tony possibly in the works, I’d rather just wait.

that you all attacked me? I just wanted to say that the team of Habib will wait for years when Tony becomes an old man, and his health will not allow him to defeat Habib. Habib will take every opportunity to not meet with Tony. Tony is a beast and he can easily defeat Habib. And his team understands this.

This fight has been postponed for 5 years. Habib’s team decides with whom Habib will fight. Now Khabib again took advantage of the situation, took all his brothers and left for his homeland. The UFC pier said that the fight will be 99.9% in the UAE, only in the UAE they did not know about the fight ufc. I understand everything, the virus. But hi will cancel this fight so that I don’t go in every day and wait in vain. So, as I believed Dana - that the battle will be 100%. The hardest thing to wait for nothing

@Phil. I know we’re all waiting for these savages to save us from this eternal boredom. I know the part of me that just wants to see some technical warfare mixed with sheer violence that JG vs Tony Ferg would likely be.  I also get him only waiting for Khabib or Conor. Tony deserves a legit title shot. He should be having none of that interim ******** or high risk fight in between. Even in times or maybe especially in times like these, the risk simply outweighs the reward. Especially at his age. Conor doesn’t deserve it other than the purse he brings to the table. Anything else would be title or bust for me if I’m Tony weighing that risk vs reward factor.

im not much into the risk vs reward argument. if tony doesnt want to fight justin thats up to him i guess but its not a good look for someone who wants to be considered the best in the division. actually i blame dana for trying to keep the card together when it was obvious when they cancelled the first three shows that it wasnt going to happen. should have rescheduled it right off the bat.

I don’t think it reflects poorly at all at the end of the day. I’d like to see the fight myself.  I’m just saying it’s easy to see why it be huge money, title or bust.   Flat out


Dana is to blame for sure though.
