'The Notorious' suffered a defeat in the fourth round against his successor at the top of the lightweight division last weekend in the main event of UFC 229.
Conor McGregor's goal of recovering the lightweight title he lost in April marked the end of the fourth inning of a thrilling 155-pound case when he was cranked.
The Irish lost all of his return fight, eagerly awaiting, taking the third stanza of the Las Vegas showdown.
The categorical victory of Nurmagomedov led many to believe that we may have seen McGregor's last member inside the Octagon.
And former UFC middleweight champion Michael Bisping thinks it is possible for the former two-division champion to suspend his gloves.
"It could disappear now," said The Count in the latest episode of his Believe You Me podcast. "He certainly made enough money.
"Of course, he has a lot of other projects going on, so he does not need to fight."
Although he is confident that McGregor would have the opportunity to end his career in the Hall of Fame, Bisping believes we have not yet seen the last of the Dubliner.
"I think he'll fight, I think he'll do it. Because that's what he is and wants: to continue making money, "he continued.
"At the moment, it is probably not money, but rather an inheritance and he probably wants to return to Khabib."
McGregor, 30, has announced his desire to play a rematch against Nurmagomedov, still undefeated.
Bisping – like many others – would not be against Nurmagomedov against McGregor 2, but believes that "The Eagle" might decide not to pay a second pay day of several million pounds.
"My big question would be: Would Khabib accept this fight? Because we also know, remember, that he had a decent career and that he earned a living wage," he said. Bisping. "But of course, Saturday night would have by far been his biggest paycheck.
"He got a guarantee of $ 2 million (£ 1.57 million). Pay-per-view, we have not seen how much yet. But I'm going to assume that it will probably earn another $ 7 million (£ 5.29 million) or £ 8 million (£ 6 million).
"So he could go away with $ 10 million (7.56 million pounds) of this fight. And I'm pretty sure it goes very far in Dagestan. And he does not have a lightning lifestyle either.
"But that's not the reason why I think he refused it. I think Khabib might not want to be associated with all this negativity.
"Because it's a person who stands and stands in high esteem.
"And he was talking about retiring a few years ago quite soon.
"And I do not know if he wants to see it all again.
"It's not because of the fight, he could take the position," I proved what I wanted, I beat him, I beat him to submit him. Our chapter of the common life is over now. 'But who knows? Money talks. "
