'We're gonna meet in Abu Dhabi': Dana White still believes Khabib Nurmagomedov will come back for 30-0

Dana White and Khabib Nurmagomedov will have a face-to-face conversation in the fight capital of the world- Abu Dhabi.

Speculations around Khabib Nurmagomedov’s comeback are still rife as Dana White refuses to put his guard down on his earlier stance.

Ever since Khabib Nurmagomedov has put his gloves down, a flow of guess work on his future began and is continuing even when the person in concern has reiterated a number of times that his decision is final and already has plans in sights in which a return to Octagon does not have a place.

All the conjectures regarding his comeback would have ended had UFC president not raised the hopes initially. But it’s him and Khabib’s manager Ali Abdelaziz, who from the start i.e., right after Khabib announced his retirement, have been promoting the idea of 30-0.

In lines with the same, similar words were uttered by Dana White at the post-fight presser of UFC Vegas 15.
