immemorial, Khamzat Chimaev also faced the brunt of his scathing remarks recently. However, if ‘Gamebred’ can back his words with a splendid display inside the Octagon, he can leapfrog ‘Chaos’ for the title shot. Notably, the American fighter who eyes breaking his 4-loss slump as he faces Gilbert Burns in Miami on April 8 might cut the line if he decimates the Brazilian fighter. The UFC Hall of Famer Daniel Cormier theorized the same and also heaped praise on the welterweight fighter for nailing the promotional tactics.

DC interestingly pointed out the odds attached to the fight that label Masvidal as an underdog. Despite the odds, the former wrestler mentioned those were redundant if the 38-year-old got the job done.

Thus, he said, “Like I said, he’s a three-to-one dog [underdog], but if you listen to him. Masvidal doesn’t question if he gets the job done.”

Following this, the former UFC associate revealed he could envision a fight involving him and the champion, Leon Edwards. Thus, he suggested, “This guy wins impressively with his star power. I could see him right in the conversation for a fight against Leon Edwards.”

Earlier, Cormier also commended the American Top Team representative for his promotional game. Hence, he put, “With that one appearance, Gamebred has made himself the talk of the town again. And all these quotes that he’s doing, that’s promotion rule number one.”
