Usman spoke about the fight with Chimaev

Dmitriy Kel Feb. 11, 2022, 6 a.m.

Dominant UFC welterweight champion Kamaru Usman shared his thoughts on a possible confrontation with undefeated prospect Khamzat Chimaev.

“You have to go through certain stages to get to the title fight. So far, Chimaev is doing an excellent job with the position, and as soon as he gets here, we will discuss this.

When I first started out, it was hard to get the fights I needed - it was hard to get the next fighter to come up against me. But now that I'm at the top, I don't have to do that. These guys need to get to me - when they come, I will be ready, ”MMA Fighting quotes Usman.
