Chimaev expressed respect for Usman: “Many people talk, but he accepts the fight”

UFC middleweight Khamzat Chimaev expressed respect Kamaru Usman, who accepted a fight with him on short notice.

“I’m going out to beat this guy. I respect that this guy agreed to participate a short time before the fight. Everyone has excuses, but not Usman. Many people are talking, but Usman is taking the fight. You can’t make predictions before a fight, because everyone talks about what they will do, but in the cage everything turns out differently,” Chimaev said.

Let us remind you that the confrontation between Chimaev and Usman will take place on October 21 in Abu Dhabi as part of UFC 294.
