Khamzat Chimaev has made a name for himself with his over-the-top performances inside the octagon. At present, the Swedish fighter boasts of a 10-0 professional MMA career and is one of the most sought fighters in the UFC.

Keeping his accomplishments to the side, one thing t that separates him from the crowd is his wild persona. Ever since ‘Borz’ entered the UFC, the fighter hasn’t stopped his call-out spree of the biggest names in the roster. One of the most recent being ‘Chaos’ Colby Covington.

In the first video of his brand new YouTube channel, ‘Borz’ called out Covington in a menacing way. The ranked welterweight claimed that he will finish Covington even worse than ‘The Nigerian Nightmare’ Kamaru Usman did.

“Who they have more in ten, top ten? Gilbert? Colby? Colby is like only talking,” Chimaev said in a vlog. “I wanna fight with this guy. I wanna show and I wanna finish him faster than Usman did. You know, Usman finished him which round? If he finish him second round, I wanna finish him first minute. And then people will understand my level.”

The former interim welterweight champion, Covington (16-3), has locked horns with Usman twice and has lost each time. However, he remains the #1 contender in the 170-pounds division.
