Khamzat Chimaev can get a middleweight title fight if he can beat him in his next fight Paulo Costa. This was announced by the UFC champion in this division Israel Adesanya.
"Yes it is. I wanted to fight Dricus du Plessis, but he missed his chance. The guy said that his leg hurts. Look at my leg - it's swollen like a balloon," Adesanya said on his YouTube channel.
Recall that the confrontation between Chimaev and Costa will be held on October 21 in Abu Dhabi as part of the 294th UFC tournament.
