White seems to be thoroughly enjoying Khamzat’s performer and as the latest Conor McGregor news tells us that he is happily retired and Khabib just wants to compete in a couple of matches, Khamzat could possibly be the one to replace them and became a top UFC star.

Khamzats’ performance in his two fights in the UFC has been great and he has impressed everyone by his positive fighting aggression, his willingness to fight, and his strong mentality. Khamzat is the type of performer who is loved by everyone and if he keeps up his work rate and willingness to fight, Khamzat could certainly become the next best UFC star.
