"Makhachev's next fight looks like this to me - it's going to be Justin Gaethje. I think it makes a lot of sense because Geetjee is a big name and if Justin fights Islam Makhachev for the championship, it's over if he loses.
I'm just being honest with you, because I'm telling you, I know these Islam and Khabib, and I know: if they talk to you, you have to listen to them, because they're telling you the truth. Whether you like it or not, they are telling you the truth. Khabib turned down $40 million dollars when he was asked to come back. The guy won't do what he doesn't want to do," Cormier said on his YouTube channel.
