Khabib Nurmagomedov, on the other hand, fought Dustin Poirier after his win against Conor and secured a third-round submission win. The Russian was scheduled to fight Tony Ferguson at UFC 249 but the fight had to be cancelled due to the Coronavirus pandemic.

UFC subsequently booked a fight between Tony Ferguson and Justin Gaethje for the event in which Gaethje came out on top via a stoppage win. Gaethje has been now lobbying for a showdown with Khabib Nurmagomedov while McGregor has also shown in interest to fight Gaethje and Khabib.
