“Our fight must take place. But they can’t force him. You can’t imagine how many people from the UFC tried to persuade Khamzat to fight me in Abu Dhabi. Last year he refused three times. They cornered him and said, “Okay, if you don’t want to fight Paulo, then you won’t fight anyone.” They offered him a very good contract, about $2 million, to sign this deal. But Allah saved him. God saved him, but only for the moment.”
