Chimaev reacted to Usman's desire to fight Canelo

Previously, Usman has repeatedly stated that he is capable of defeating the star Mexican. However, Chimaev, like most other fighters, treats such a statement by an American Nigerian with irony.

“Canelo must be very afraid that this guy will knock him out,” Chimaev wrote on Twitter.

In November last year, Usman made his fifth title defense, defeating Colby Covington by unanimous decision. His next opponent is expected to be Leon Edwards.
