This Saturday night UFC is about to land for a third time in Abu Dhabi with a banger main event. UFC lightweight champion Khabib Nurmagomedov (27-0) is making his return to the Octagon, as he will defend his belt against the Interim lightweight champ Dustin Poirier (25-5).
At UFC 242 workouts Khabib Nurmagomedov answered questions from the fans Wednesday in Abu Dhabi:
Khabib Nurmagomedov vs George St Pierre is the most talked-about super fight in UFC at the moment.
When a fan asked whether he would move up after the fight with Poirier, Khabib answered:
“I want to stay in a lightweight division. I feel I can make this weight. This is my weight. And I don’t want to jump to featherweight or welterweight. I want to defend my title and improve my legacy.”
