Let us remind you that the other day it became known that Khabib was taking part in Makhachev’s training camp, despite the fact that he had previously announced his complete retirement from mixed martial arts.
“It seems he won’t be in Islam’s corner. No, no, he's just training with him. As always. He just came to Dubai to train with the guys because it motivates him. But, as far as I know, Khabib has no plans to return to the role of a corner, as well as a coach. Still, when he’s in the gym, he drives everyone,” Usman said at the press conference after Bellator 300.
Let us remind you that the rematch between Makhachev and Oliveira will headline the UFC 294 tournament, which will take place on October 21 in Abu Dhabi, UAE.
