Chimaev thinks a fight with Covington would be the best option for him.
“We haven’t talked about the fight with Colby. He’s not writing anything, he’s gone. Maybe he wants to make money. I don’t know their situation with Masvidal. I think a fight with Covington would be a good option for me, but I can’t go home and set up a fight there. Diaz isn’t in the top 10, but he’s one of the toughest guys in the promotion. I think if I win it will add glory to me,” Chimaev said.
The fight between Diaz and Chimaev headlined UFC 279 in September.
