The head coach of the AKA gym, as well as the coach of Khabib Nurmagomedov, Javier Mendez, believes that the UFC will definitely organize a rematch of his ward and the former champion of the organization in two weight categories Conor McGregor.

“Of course, everyone, as before, wants this fight. Otherwise, why pay for it? That's why I think the UFC will have a rematch,” Mendez said.

In the first fight, Khabib forced the Irishman to surrender in the fourth round.
