“I will not stick his head out” – Khamzat Chimaev will not fight “good guy” Robert Whittaker because he loves him

Yes, it is true Khamzat Chimaev “He’s coming for everybody” and he’s really going to “kill everybody” but that’s not true of veterans like him. Robert Whittaker and other warriors admired and respected by Chechens.

The UFC roster’s new “Bogeyman” has wreaked havoc that led to war. UFC 279. You don’t always see people being grateful when a fighter misses their weight for the scheduled fight, but Khamzat Chimaev’s missing the heavyweight limit by 8 pounds was definitely a win-win for the fans. Chimaev’s failure to fight Nate Diaz resulted in the UFC messing up the main card matches.

Khamzat ended the fight Kevin Holland in a five-round match in the joint main event but “Borz” barely needed one round to finish “Big Mouth”. The Chechen was definitely bullied for another win and received no attack from the Netherlands. Chimaev won the fight through submission and silenced his enemies. (Well, some at least)

While Khamzat manages to find an opponent at the last moment, there is no guarantee that the UFC will be able to reshoot something as ridiculous as UFC 279 when Khamzat fights. Chimaev is fighting in the middleweight division after the scale debacle, a real possibility from now on. There are few names that Khamzat won’t fight, and Robert Whittaker is one of the 185-pound divisions.

Khamzat Chimaev is open to training with Robert Whittaker

Chimaev has voiced middleweight champion Israel Adesanya several times, but fighting the former champion of the 185 division is definitely not on Chimaev’s wish list. “I like that guy. I don’t want to fight some good guys, I need some bad guys.” “Hitman” Khamzat Chimaev said at the UFC 279 post-fight press conference.

“I want to fight some bad guys and I don’t feel bad about it. So, I want to train with that guy. [Robert]. He’s really good, one of the best men in the world. I was watching their fights” Chimaev said why he didn’t fight Whittaker.

“A lot of guys want to fight me, so Robert never said a bad word about me. A lot of guys talk shit about me and I can go and raise their heads and we’ll see.” He made Khamzat decide why not to fight Whittaker. It is very likely that we will see the next Khamzat Colby Covington fighting on his return. In the middleweight division, it’s still doubtful whether Khamzat will fight the next 185.
