Notorious was the great favourite in the duel against Dustin Poirier within UFC 257) and hoped for a major confrontation with the lightweight champion, who is retired anyway.
But the Irishman lost to knockouts in a duel against the American, and now the likelihood of the long - awaited rhyme with Khahabi has faded noticeably.
McGregor is considered the biggest rival of Nurmagomedov, who had defeated him in 2018 and was expected a multimillion-dollar rhyme between them.
And now when the duel is almost impossible, Khab's coach Javier Mendez points to what will happen if the rhyme develops.
“Khabi is better. He's better than he was when they met two years ago. Conor you didn't do better. He's a little down. Kharab has become evidently better. He ( McGregor) was to be defeated”, the coach stressed, commenting on the death of the Irishman from Poirier.
When I saw Dustin start beating his feet, I said, God, Conor's position isn't designed to control such footprints properly. Especially shots to lower muscles. So I knew it would be a big problem”.
It was a brilliant plan from Dustin to hit his feet, his lower muscles. While it was a misconception on the part of Conor that had not been prepared for this”, Mendez said.
Furthermore, Khahabi's coach has made it clear to McGregor that the rhyme with Nurmagomedov will not happen.
The “will never happen again. Just as Tony (Ferguson) and Khabhab will not happen. It will never happen... Khab doesn't need it. He's filled out”, he added.
