Waiting for a new duel from Khamzat is already exhausting.
The hype around the name of Khamzat Chimaev is slowly but steadily subsiding. No wonder: any fighter is made to fight, and Borz fights less and less. Yes, the Chechen Swede is still a UFC superstar, but they’ve only been talking about him for less than a year. Chimaev, of course, continues to challenge everyone in a row, promising that he will become the UFC champion in at least two weight classes, but so far he has not been very successful in proving words with deeds.

Khabib’s brother, Chimaev or Pavlovich? Who will be the next UFC champion of Russia?
It seems that the case with Chimaev’s next fight still took off. Chechen coach Azamat Dugulubgov posted the following message on social media: “My flight was delayed this morning, but I didn’t waste time. I have already studied Borz’s next opponent. ” Azamat accompanied his message with a screenshot, where he blurred the frame with the fighter. Chimaev made a new post, but soon both deleted the message. Why?

The fact is that Dulugubov did not blur the frame well enough. And astute internet users conducted operational research and determined that Chimaev’s trainer apparently studied the Jared Cannonier fight. Now Cannonier is ranked third in the UFC middleweight rankings and looks like the most suitable opponent for Khamzat, who is on the brink of conquering a new division. Let’s hope that this time Chimaev will not break anything.

On the other hand, it is a pity that Borz is unlikely to face Kamaru Usman in the Octagon. Negotiations have broken down and are unlikely to resume anytime soon. Usman, who is about to finish his career, really wanted a money fight with Khamzat, but something went wrong. Chimaev lost so many opponents that it would be enough for the entire career of many fighters in the UFC. Let the fight with Cannonier at least take place.
