32 year old UFC legend Khabib Nurmagomedov retired from mixed martial arts in October 2020 after defending his lightweight title and defeating Justin Gaethje at UFC 254.
Since then the entire world of fighting has been trying to get Khabib back into the octagon with many surprised he retired so early.
An astonishing professional record of 29 wins and 0 losses, Khabib retired undefeated so it would take a serious offer from Dana White to get the Dagestani fighter back but the Daily Mail are reporting that Dana is going to make ‘Khabib Nurmagomedov an offer he can’t refuse’.
Dana showed proof on his twitter today that discussions have officially begun as he shared a video of the two meeting in Abu Dhabi before going into a private room together where the camera was not allowed to follow.

Khabib seems set on retirement as his mother stated she no longer wants her son fighting after his father died tragically in July of last year.
Do you think Dana will tempt him back into the UFC?
