With chatter surrounding Georges St. Pierre stepping in the Octagon as Khabib Nurmagomedov's possible final career opponent, bookies were quick to set odds on the potential bout. They listed St. Pierre +170 vs. Khabib -200. As of Tuesday morning, these odds were still available as were odds on this fight taking place by year's end (2020). YES pays nearly $600 on a $100 bet.
Within minutes of these odds being posted, UFC President Dana White confirmed Khabib will face Justin Gaethje on October 24, 2020.
Gaethje was coming in at +190 and Khabib -225 at BetOnline.
White says the American will be Khabib's opponent when he returns to the Octagon in three months' time.
"It's going to happen, tell you right here right now. That fight is going to happen," White told CNN.
"Khabib versus Gaethje, October 24."
