Khamzat Chimaev told how he reacted to the news that their fight with Kamaru Usman at UFC 294 will have the status of a contender.
“To be honest, I’m not thinking about a title fight right now. I'm focused on Usman. The UFC bosses already promised me before the fight against Gilbert Burns: “If you beat this guy, we’ll give you a title shot.” And now I’ve been waiting for two years. I had another fight against Holland, but again I didn’t get the title. So I don't know what's going on. I'm going to blow everyone's heads off in the UFC. If I finish off everyone, they'll have to give me all the belts."
