I think it’s more of a legacy builder in khabibs own brain than it is to anybody else. We all know he openly considers GSP the goat and I think he just wants to try his luck against him. At 155 he probably smashes GSP
I doubt it would be 165 for the reasons you outlined @pistolpete11- Dana quickly shoots it down every time he gets asked about that division- but he did say it would be something big for 30-0 and I just don’t see what he could give Khabib other than GSP and I think 165 would be an ideal middle ground for both of them.
Again Dana probably never allows it at 165 but hey, maybe he’s just keeping the 165 idea on ice because he wants to surprise people with this supposedly big plan for Khabib’s final fight. I’d say there is a 10% chance. Let a man dream!
