Swedish welterweight prospect Khamzat Chimaev expressed confidence that he could deal with the former interim champion of his division Colby Covington in one minute.

“Colby talks a lot, I want to fight this guy. I want to finish it faster than Usman did. I will deal with him in one minute, and then people will see what level I am at," Chimaev said on his YouTube channel.

27-year-old Chimaev last fought on October 30 at UFC 267, defeating Lee Jingliang by choke in the first round.
