Athletistic/ Boxing. Andreas Michael, Khamzat Chimaev’s trainer, expects the athlete to compete in the middleweight and welterweight divisions.

“Khamzat is a big guy and he needs time if he wants to fight at welterweight. Of course he can lose weight.

But he needs a little more time for that. We will go up and down. We will compete at middleweight and welterweight, get a grade in both divisions, and then take both belts,” Michael said as quoted by ESPN AR.

Previously, the fight between Khamzat Chimaev and Kevin Holland took place at the UFC 279 tournament and ended with an early first-round choke victory for Khamzat.
