Usman wants a five-round rematch with Chimaev

Former UFC welterweight champion Kamaru Usman spoke about his future career plans.

“If Adesanya has a title fight with Du Plessis, then a rematch with Chimaev makes sense. Yes, it is obvious that the result of this fight will influence my decision. But who wouldn’t want to see our fight with Chimaev? After all, Khamzat really wants to become a champion.

He calls himself a world-class fighter, so why not have a five-round rematch? Everyone wants to see this fight. Many different factors are taken into account before a fighter gets a chance to compete for a championship.

To be honest, I also wouldn’t mind competing at welterweight again. I want this title back. We'll see what happens. Now I’m resting and I want my body to recover,” MMA Junkie quotes Usman.
