Chechen superstar Khamzat Chimaev is all set to make his official middleweight debut at UFC 294. Chimaev is known for his superior grappling skills and ability to dominate opponents in the Octagon. He is set to face middleweight contender Paulo Costa in Abu Dhabi. He recently posted a video of him training for the fight and issued a warning to Costa during the video.

During the video, Chimaev showed off his lavish lifestyle and trained with his coaches showing off his strength. After a long session of training, Chimaev issued a warning to his opponent. He said, “Paulo, you dead man, be sure to come up to the cage. I’m going to beat you and send you back in a package to Brazil. In Brazil, they don’t want you. But now you are coming to my country, Muslims brother, we’re coming for you”. He then resumed his training and started his strength and conditioning.

Chimaev is known for his scary demeanor and determination to be the best. He dominated his opponents in every possible way in the Octagon and finishes them. His fights against Kevin Holland and Li Jingliang are some of the highlights of his career. However, Chimaev’s hardest test was Gilbert Burns who gave him a tough fight. Despite Burns’s excellent performance, Chimaev was the better fighter.
