Gambling911.com has your prop bet odds on who Conor McGregor will fight next should he beat Dustin Poirier in UFC 257 Saturday night.
Conor McGregor next opponent if defeats to Poirier
Khabib Nurmagomedov -250
Justin Gaethje +250
Nate Diaz +500
Any other fighter +700
There’s no title on the line in the McGregor-Poirier rematch of their 2014 featherweight bout that McGregor won by TKO inside of two minutes.
What looms large here is the prospect of the Irishman taking on Nurmagomedov.
From the New York Post:
The closest thing to a prize up for grabs is the chance that maybe, according to UFC president Dana White, the unbeaten Nurmagomedov will go back on his stated desire to step away from competition in the wake of his father Abdulmanap’s death and backslide on the promise made to his bereaved mother.
“If these guys could do something special, Khabib will fight them,” White told viewers during last Saturday’s “UFC Fight Night” event on ABC, the culmination of a hyped announcement stemming from a well-promoted conversation between the two earlier in the week.
Gaethje has great value paying $25 for every $10 bet should he take on McGregor next.
And should McGregor lose?
The odds do shift. Notice Khabib is not even on the list.
Conor McGregor next opponent if loses to Poirier
Nate Diaz -175
Tony Ferguson +275
Justin Gaethje +325
Charles Oliveira +600
Any other fighter +700
