I really love how Khabib is a sportsman. He views the belt as a reflection of the best fighter in the division and he only wants to fight the best fighter available for the belt. Proving he is the best is more important than the belt to him.
Same reason he wants to fight GSP. It’s not for the money, it’s not for the spectacle. He respects GSP, regards him as the best and wants to test himself against the best.

"You can't cheat the game"

respect for Khabib, recognizing Tony as first in line

Conor needs to win before rematch, plain and simple. Gaethje would be a good fight to prove he can rematch Khabib

I like his take on this and agree a rematch isn't warranted. I disagree with "it's not for the money" though. It went from send me location to I won't fight Conor unless I get millions.

Then when he couldn't control his emotions after beating up McGregor and started a riot he threatened to quit if he didn't get paid due to his suspension.

I think everyone, Conor fans and Conor haters alike, realized that something was off with Conor's footwork in that first fight. Well well well it turns out he had a broken foot.

Khabib felt those shots in round 3, the first round he has ever officially lost in the UFC.

He is clearly scared of an able-bodied Conor...

I’m sure Khabib and his terrorist rat manager don’t want to fight Conor (sarcasm). I mean who doesn’t want to fight the most popular MMA fighter in history after they already beat them in the highest rated fight in history, when the worst case scenario is a rubber match that will break all MMA PPV records? But yeah, I’m sure Khabib will turn down that fight if Danus wants to make it. Right.

I just watched the press conference. Holy shit how sad.

For whatever reason they flew Dustin and Khabib to London for a press conference in Meghan Markle's dining room that had no more than 9 journalists asking questions.

excuses are not needed
Conor was broken by an unbeaten fighter and lost the fight
No shame in that
