While Nurmagomedov is eyeing a blockbuster fight with UFC legend Georges St-Pierre in April 2021 if he gets past Gaethje.

"At the end of the day, the Conor McGregor [rematch], I know Conor has wanted that fight since the last one [in October 2018]," he explained.

"That's a fight to make, but I don't know. We'll see how this plays out. Sure, [I would be open to St-Pierre] if it's his last fight. This guy's been great to the company, great to the sport. I like Khabib a lot. I would do anything Khabib wanted to do."

St-Pierre, who had one of the most dominant title reigns in UFC history, then responded to the UFC president's claim.

"Damn! Just when I thought I'd have peace of mind," he told ESPN. "I look forward to watching Khabib and Gaethje in October. Best of luck to them."
