He’s signed a 6 fight deal with the UFC.
With what he's done for the company, I can see him retiring rather than fighting anyone else. Maybe an tune up Aldo fight would be good for himConor holds all the trump cards. He is UFC's biggest draw. Khabib earned more at UFC 229 that he has done in his entire career.
Khabibs last fight at UFC 223 had a buy rate of 350k which i believe is his previous biggest PPV rate.
Aldo, Tony, and anyone else calling Conor out are looking for a payday and Dana will want to milk Conor for all he is worth so i cant see a rematch against Khabib being his next fight.
Similarly, if Conor decides he never wants to fight again I am sure UFC would allow it but would try to get him on board in some capacity in fight promotion.
All IMO of course

Well it was only a matter of time before the idea of fully commercialising hooliganism hit the mainstream... I don't know how I feel about this, obviously I watched and will watch again... ;\

Yeah but can you imagine how much it would cost to breach that contract? He couldn’t do it financially?
Wouldn't cost him anything if he retires and doesn't fight elsewhereRuskie said:

Wouldn't cost him anything if he retires and doesn't fight elsewhereThey could stop him fighting elsewhere (Bellator etc) as he would still be under contract.
