“Yes, of course, I'm surprised that Nate Diaz agreed to fight me. He himself said that this match was a bad option for him. I have no doubt that I can easily beat Diaz. The guy is getting old. He is no longer the same fighter who defeated Conor McGregor. Nate is not that young fighter. This is his last fight in the UFC. Diaz will lose and go about his business, for example, boxing. I will literally kill him and kick him out of the league,” the fighter said.
Recall that the confrontation between Chimaev and Diaz will be held on September 10 as part of UFC 279.
