Khamzat Chimaev‘s career has been on a downward spiral recently. It’s not because he has been losing matches, but because he has been avoiding many legacy-building fights due to ongoing health issues. ‘Borz’ was supposed to fight Robert Whittaker on the UFC’s debut in Saudi Arabia, however, his health deteriorated and he had to pull out. Well, a month has passed since that incident and Chimaev appears to be in the pink of his health now.
