Days After Ranting at Dana White, Khamzat Chimaev Trashes Colby Covington’s “Big Bullsh*t” Call Out of Israel Adesanya: “Why You Didn’t Accept a Fight?”

It’s been eons since Khamzat Chimaev stepped into the UFC octagon! And he’s howling like a banshee for a challenge. The undefeated Swedish fighter has been itching for a scrap, but he’s been met with a deafening silence. Recently, ‘The Nigerian Nightmare’ Kamaru Usman threw down the gauntlet and called out Chimaev for a scrap. The Swede accepted the challenge, but Dana White put the kibosh on the matchup, blaming it on Chimaev for his inactivity. ‘Borz’ wasn’t pleased with White’s statement and went on a blistering rant, lambasting the UFC president for not giving him a chance.

In the midst of all this drama, the dominant Swede has aimed a shot at fellow welterweight fighter Colby Covington. The former UFC Interim Welterweight Champion is currently sitting pretty, as White has promised him a title shot against Leon Edwards, despite being inactive for over a year. To add fuel to the fire, Covington recently made some audacious remarks about the reigning middleweight champion Israel Adesanya, which compelled the dominant Swede Chimaev to give him a piece of his mind.

Khamzat Chimaev disses Colby Covington

During a recent interview with ‘MMA Fighting’, the Californian fighter took a shot at Israel Adesanya. Despite securing a title shot at the welterweight division, the 35-year-old seems to be looking beyond the horizon and is aiming for the middleweight champion in the future, too.

Speaking of which, Colby Covington said, “I don’t think [Israel Adesanya] can hang with me. I think I take him down, I beat him from pillar to post and I just break him inside that Octagon. He can’t hang with the cardio king. He’s not ready for all-American steel and twisted s*x appeal. I would love that fight, champion versus champion, USA versus wherever he’s from, New Zealand or whatever. Let’s get this going.”

This post grabbed a lot of attention from UFC enthusiasts, including Khamzat Chimaev. The 29-year-old reacted to it with a question at first, asking, “If you company man why you didn’t accept a fight ? 🤣”.

Khamzat Chimaev is still on the hunt for his next opponent, but he’s been caught up in one dramatic situation after another. Who do you think ‘Borz’ should fight next? Let us know in the comments below.
