Khabib vs Poirier: What to Expect at UFC 242?
At UFC 242, we expect Khabib to defeat Poirier with ease. While Dustin Poirier has managed to beat names such as Justin Gaethje, Max Holloway and Anthony Pettis over his last few fights, Khabib has also taken on names such as Conor McGregor and has defeated them. It is going to be a brutal encounter but Khabib is expected to emerge on top.

Conor McGregor, too, might show up at the event. We know that he wants revenge for his humiliating loss at UFC 229 and what better way than to show up at UFC 242 and challenge Khabib.
It's a month and some change until ufc 242, and everyone seems to be convinced of how it ends, but if Dustin were to win, how does he do it? Is there really a Poirier shaped hole in Khabib's game? Thoughts?

Who Does Khabib Face After UFC 242?
There are two big-match scenarios for Khabib Nurmagomedov at the moment. Khabib vs Diaz if Diaz manages to beat Pettis – the possibility of this is high following their UFC 239 altercation, or Khabib vs McGregor, if everything falls in place. Nevertheless, whoever he decides to face will be an interesting choice! Stay tuned with us for more updates.
