Manager Reveals Khamzat Chimaev’s Retirement Plans

Khamzat Chimaev has quickly risen to the top. With three back to back victories in less than three months inside the UFC, Chimaev has a bright career going forward. Chimaev was last seen inside the octagon against MMA veteran Gerald Meerscheart at UFC Fight Night where he picked up a brutal first-round KO win to register his second straight victory at the Middleweight division. Heading into his second fight inside the octagon, Chimaev has had problems landing a fight. The Chechnyan fighter has called out several fighters including the likes of Stephen Thompson, and Nate Diaz.

Neil Magny is an impressive striker with a solid ground game. He dominated Robbie Lawler for the better part of the entire fight and showed great ground game against the former champion. Additionally, Magny has a credible submission game to back his skill-set and could be a great threat to Khamzat Chimaev’s rise.
