Hajiyev does not see Chimaev as UFC champion this year

President of the AMC Fight Nights Global promotion Kamil Hajiyev spoke about the championship prospects of the UFC welterweight prospect Khamzat Chimaev.

“Chimaev will not become the UFC champion in 2022. I think he will not become one at all, because while Usman is fighting, it seems to me that Kamaru is iron number one, and Khamzat is iron number two. I repeat - so far it seems to me. At the end of 2022, maybe I will think differently, because Khamzat has not yet received big fights, "Hajiyev said in an interview with Match TV.
