Following his back-to-back wins in July, Chimaev put a halt to his action in August. However, his return in September has been sensational with a massive win over a veteran ‘GM3’ Meerschaert. That said, the welterweight prodigy is once again on the top spot, with everyone talking about him.

Amid all the hype and speculations, Chimaev’s unparalleled skills cannot be underestimated, especially when he has three finishes in just three months into the promotion.
