Usman called the fight between Chimaev and Diaz strange

Kamaru Usman, former UFC welterweight champion, shared his opinion on the upcoming confrontation between Khamzat Chimaev and Nate Diaz.

“This is a strange fight. It doesn't make much sense. If Khamzat wins, it's hard to say that he deserves the opportunity to compete for the title. He passed Gilbert Burns, and now he needs to meet with Masvidal. I think it will be more interesting if he fights Covington. This is an interesting fight that is the ultimate test. In the battle with Covington, it will become clear who he is. Yes, this is Covington, he should go past him, ”Usman said.

Recall that the fight between Chimaev and Usman will be held on September 10 in Las Vegas.
