American journalist and insider Ruben Carter claims that the fight between the former UFC middleweight champion Israel Adesanya and the prospect of this weight Khamzat Chimaev - it's a done deal. Carter wrote on his social networks that both fighters have already signed a contract for the fight, which will take place on June 22 at the debut UFC tournament in Saudi Arabia.
It is worth noting that just today Chimaev posted a post on social networks in which he hinted that there would be news regarding his next fight in the near future.
Let us remember that not long ago Adesanya decided to end his career and return in a few years. However, after some time he changed his mind and stated that he would soon appear in the Octagon.
