Khamzat Chimaev Agitated with UFC and Dana White- Says He Will Call Out Middleweights
Follow Us
Khamzat Chimaev is like a human fighting machine, who seeks regular competition. He made his UFC debut at Fight Island on July 15 and is already on a three-fight win streak.
Finishing all three of his opponents, Chimaev has competed in both the middleweight and the welterweight division. That said, it seemed that he took shelter in the welterweight unit for some time. However, Chimaev is now ready to get into the middleweight division again, since he has failed to bag any of the top 170 pounders.

A lot of fighters believe that it’s bizarre to hand him a top-rated fight because he is just three fights old in the UFC. However, looking at his activeness and sheer dominance, many believe that ‘Borz’ can actually defeat the A-listers.
While it has been just a month since his KO win against Gerald Meerschaert, Khamzat Chimaev is calling out the middleweights like it’s normal.

After calling out the welterweight contenders like Stephen Thompson and several others, Chimaev has turned to Twiter to make a statement. He tagged UFC head, Dana White, in the post and wrote, “I can’t get Welterweight fight I’m going to start calling out middleweight.”

He is yet to receive a response in that, but Chimaev has set his eyes on the middleweight title too. When Israel Adesanya defend his title against Paulo Costa at UFC 253, ‘Borz’ asked the administrators to hand him the “skinny guy” via Twitter.
