Khamzat Chimaev reacted to rumors that he would fight Jiri Prochazka for the UFC light heavyweight title, which Alex Pereira will leave vacant.

“Perhaps I'm already in this division. Alex Pereira has not yet responded, but we'll see — maybe there will be someone else. I just want to become a two-division champion. Then I might return to middleweight or move even higher to heavyweight. I'm not one of those who tries to leave the UFC undefeated. I don't care, I just want to have big fights. Whether I'll be able to become a triple champion, only the Almighty knows, but we'll try.”
