He does now.
No amount of gif reactions will change that.

Unless we just focus on the west like its the only part of the world.

Khabib is a far greater star than Connor ever was, and ever will be.

He is literally the most famous muslim on the planet.

conor's shining star last as long as his fewt when it was a baloon, period

He's definitely a big star in Russia, but I wouldn't use free TV viewers as the benchmark for it

Benchmark for what?

That was only Russia.
Not including any arab speaking countries.
UFC has a 5 year deal with Abu Dhabi
There is no official numbers on just how famous Khabib is.

But anyone with half a brain can realize that being the most famous muslim means even non mma fans know your name.
I truly doubt the same can be said about McGregor.

"According to a study in 2015, Islam has 1.8 billion adherents, making up about 24.1% of the world population."

And i guarantee you with how Muslims are. 99% of them have heard of Khabib. Even the cave dwelling ex-Talibans who have been hiding in the mountains from US troops for 17 years.

I just meant, a lot of people are willing to watch stuff for free, but as soon as they have to spend their money, the fandom is gone

like this section mostly illegal streams mma

They beauty here is that there will always be free ways to watch these events.
The more free it is, the more global exposure it has.
Win-win.

he made 136

good for Aldo

He looks like a twig, holy crap.
