Initially, Chimaev was supposed to fight with Brazilian Paulo Costa. But he underwent elbow surgery, which kept him from entering the octagon.
“Chimaev is a highly trained fighter, strong and tall. He has great speed, knows how to fight, work well on the ground, deliver powerful blows. He can do everything. But so can I. We are all human. Everyone is happy. Feels invulnerable as long as someone doesn’t enter the bubble.

I’m not thinking about the future yet. Now there is a mountain in front of me, I must climb it. For now, let’s get through this, and then we’ll think about other things,” Usman said according to TMZ.
