UFC President Dana White has made his intentions to bring back Khabib Nurmagomedov clear.

Dana White recently spoke to ESPN and made his intentions clear with the 29-0 undefeated Lightweight Champion. ‘I’m obviously meeting with him because I believe that he should fight again. I mean, look at what he did to Justin Gaethje.”

“Look at what he’s done to every opponent he has faced” White continued. “[It’s] like when I wanted [Daniel] Cormier to stay, I still think they’re the best in the world. And then there’s always the argument, well, it’s never a bad thing to go out on top.”

‘And when you talk about money, I mean Khabib has money beyond belief” White would continue. “This guy doesn’t ever have to work again and he still has the ability to do things to make unbelievable money. He’s in a very unique position as a fighter.’

Dana White would finish by re-iterating that he is desperate to get Khabib to return for one final fight. ‘I think he should fight again and I’m gonna press him as hard as I can for one more.’
