In a video on his YouTube channel, Chimaev sent a chilling warning to ‘Wonderboy’ for attempting to call a fight against him.
“And who more? Belal and who, this guy, other guy, Karate guy? [Stephen] Thompson, yeah, he lost. He said, ‘maybe I am gonna fight with him in the future’. Brother, are you sure? Your skills, your level is like weak,” Chimaev said.
“If Belal hold you down, I can put you under the cage brother. I don’t know how these guys think they will win against me. Ten fights ten finishes and I didn’t lose one second in the fights. I beat everybody. These guys don’t know I am coming for them. Real money is here Dana White. They know that,” ‘Borz’ continued.
