Earlier it became known that the management of the promotion tried to appoint this fight as the main event of the anniversary UFC 300 tournament, which will take place on April 13 in Las Vegas, USA.
“They wanted me to compete at UFC 300, but I said I didn’t have enough time to get down to 170 pounds. I need more time.
This has not been resolved 100%. But they talked to my manager. They said anything is possible. But then my brother told me: “Not during Ramadan.” After the post, we will train a little and then fight with any opponent,” Chimaev said in an interview with FCR MMA.
