Former UFC lightweight champion Khabib Nurmagomedov of Russia has requested five million dollars for a grappling bout with Canadian Georges St-Pierre. The head of B Team Jiu-Jitsu and two-time ADCC silver medalist Craig Jones said.

I was with the [UFC] Fight Pass guys and they were trying to ask me for opponents for [Georges St-Pierre], like ideas. And I had no idea who would be [suitable]... Obviously I said Khabib, and I think they said Khabib wanted $5 million to do the grappling match. I was like, woah! Obviously that's priced himself out there.
