UFC President Dana White spoke about a possible next opponent for Khamzat Chimaeva. The functionary named two names: Nate Diaz and Colby Covington.
“The fight between Chimaev and Diaz is what we are still talking about. It will definitely not be held as part of the international fight week. Talk about the future. This is a fun fight. Khamzat is number three in the world, he is against Diaz - that would be fun. Colby Covington vs Khamzat would be fun too. Let's see how it goes," the official said.
Recall that in his last fight, Chimaev defeated the former contender for the UFC welterweight champion belt, Gilbert Burns.
