UFC CEO Dana White is convinced that the promotion's champion should be ready to fight anyone, anytime.

“Fighters who train hard, who consider themselves the best of the best, must be ready to fight anyone, anywhere. As Khabib said, when you are the best, when you have a championship belt, you have to accept a challenge from any fighter,” White said in an interview with TNT Sports.

Let us remember that Nurmagomedov held the title in the UFC lightweight division. The Dagestani retired in the fall of 2020 with an impeccable record of 29-0.
