Bo Nickal envisions ‘Inevitable’ fight with Khamzat Chimaev ahead of UFC 309 return

Slated to make his return at UFC 309 this weekend, unbeaten middleweight, Bo Nickal claims it’s likely “inevitable” he and fellow undefeated star, Khamzat Chimaev share the Octagon in the future — as he prepares for a pairing with Scottish grappler, Paul Craig.

Nickal, a decorated amateur wrestler, boasts an unbeaten 6-0 professional mixed martial arts record since his transition to combat sports, most recently featuring at UFC 300 earlier this annum.
