Rakhmonov: "Chimaev needs a fight with Burns"

Alexandr Ormanji | Published Feb. 7, 2022, 4:39 a.m.

In an interview with Igor Lazorin, unbeaten UFC welterweight prospect Shavkat Rakhmonov spoke about a possible fight between Khamzat Chimaev and Gilbert Burns.

“A good fight, a very necessary fight for Chimaev, as it seems to me. He wants to win the belt faster, so it is beneficial for him. If Chimaev wins now, he will immediately fly to the championship fight. If Burns wins, he will still lose some ground."

Recall that earlier there was information that this fight could take place on April 9.
