Former UFC champion in two weight divisions George St. Pierre shared his expectations from the upcoming match between Khamzat Chimaev and Nate Diaz, which will take place on the night of September 11 at UFC 279 in Las Vegas.
“The fight will take place in welterweight, which will play into the hands of Chimaev - he is more powerful. But Nate is never to be discounted. He has a lot of strengths, he's tough, so you'll have to try really hard to knock him out. It will be a difficult challenge for Khamzat.
In the last fight, Chimaev fought three rounds for the first time, he learned a lot. We will see an improved version of Khamzat, ”the Canadian said in an interview with the UFC.
