Khamzat Chimaev does not have a fight booked but finds himself in media attention, all thanks to his social media activity. The Welterweight contender took shots at Kamaru Usman and Leon Edwards ahead of their trilogy fight, claiming he will soon win the belts from them.
Chimaev has not fought since dominating Kevin Holland at UFC 279. He has made his intention clear of winning both Welterweight and Middleweight championships. He even called out Robert Whittaker recently to be the next contender for the Middleweight Championship.
Khamzat Chimaev is undefeated as a fighter with 12 wins. In the past, he has struggled to make weight. Chimaev had a weight problem that led to the cancellation of his fight against Nate Diaz at UFC 279. It remains to be seen who he will be facing next. Chimaev was previously scheduled to fight Leon Edwards, but that did not materialise.

Kamaru Usman and Leon Edwards will fight for the Welterweight title at UFC 286. Chimaev will be looking to fight the winner of that fight. Edwards recently defeated Usman at UFC 278, setting up the trilogy bout between them both. However, the winner will soon find himself competing against Khamzat Chimaev, as many believe he is the next contender in line for a title fight.

More chance of me outwrestling Khamzat than Khamzat making 170 again.

Dude doesn’t even know which weight class to fight at or who he wants to fight. He’s always talking going back and forth all the time.

He can’t even make weight

Khamzat couldn’t beat belal let’s be honest. Guy almost die by lightweight durinho

This guy will never make 170 again. This is a waste of thought.
— Tony Frazier (@tfraz20) March 16, 2023
Khamzat lost his hype fast. Hardly beat burns. Nobody will fight him at 170 because you can’t guarantee he’ll make the weight.

Khamzat Chimaev does not have a fight scheduled but will look to fight the winner, Usman and Edwards. He is also motivated to fight for the Middleweight championship as well. Fight fans will soon find out what is next for Chimaev.
