Former Interim UFC Lightweight Champion Tony Ferguson spoke about the failed top welterweight Khamzat Chimaev Weigh in before UFC 279.

Recall that Chimay showed an advantage of more than 3 kilograms, because of which his fight with Nate Diaz was canceled. As a result, the Swede fought Kevin Holland and won by choke in the first round.

“The whole story reminded me of the coronavirus pandemic, if you know what I mean. We have two Russians, as Nate stated. Khabib ran away from me a huge number of times. And there is Khamzat, deliberately failing the weighing.

To be honest, it seems to me that all this was just a cover to avoid a fight, ”quotes the words of the American MMA News.
