JAKARTA - Two UFC stars Khabib Nurmagomedov and Conor McGregor were asked by fans to have another fight. However, this time both were asked to "wrinkle" in the UFC heavyweight.

The request comes after the latest image from Khabib circulated on the internet. In the photo, the retired fighter's body in 2020 looks like it is transforming into a bigger one.

"He (Khabib) weighs the same weight as Conor. Khabib vs Conor in the heavyweight class," wrote one internet user.

Khabib is currently active in the promotion company Eagle Fighting Championship which he founded after retiring. Most recently, the former UFC world champion was seen on the side of the ring at the Bellator event in Japan.

Photos while on the show then circulated in the media world. This is what led fans to suggest returning to the octagon and confronting rival McGregor.

"He and Conor have to re-match in heavyweight," another commented.

"He and Conor should be preparing to fight for the heavyweight title," another added.

McGregor also currently posts photos on Instagram and shows major changes to his body muscles. The weight is considered the most suitable to compete at the beay class level.

The Irish fighter reportedly had plans to return to the octagon earlier this year after his leg broke in the July 2021 trilogy against Dustin Poirier.

"I will be back soon, hopefully. I will target early 2023. One day in the first quarter," he said in October.

Khabib and McGregor previously faced off in the lightweight in 2018. At that time, Khabib defeated his opponent in the fourth round.
