Athletistic/ MMA. Swedish mixed martial arts fighter Khamzat Chimaev has admitted he would like to fight former UFC welterweight champion, Nigerian Kamaru Usman.

“I hope Kamaru is healthy. We’ll see. I would like to see his return. If he comes back like he was before, I would like to fight this guy,” Chimaev said.

On August 20, 2022, Kamaru Usman lost to England’s Leon Edwards by knockout (head kick) in the fifth round and lost the UFC welterweight title.

On September 11, Khamzat Chimaev will face American Nate Diaz in the UFC 279 tournament in Las Vegas, USA.
