Promotional boss, Dana White has dropped the biggest hint surrounding a potential title fight for the unbeaten, Khamzat Chimaev — claiming it would be “fun” to see the Chechen feature at UFC 317 during International Fight Week at the end of June.
Chimaev, who has been sidelined since October of last year, most recently made incredibly short-work of former middleweight champion, Robert Whittaker.
And earning himself a title fight as per White via his display, the unbeaten finisher submitted Auckland-born favorite, Whittaker with a nasty opening round face crank win in their reworked UFC 308 co-headliner.
