Less than a year ago, Khamzat Chimaev was on a fast track to MMA superstardom. But after a prolonged battle with COVID-19, it’s looking like that journey has come to an abrupt end.
The 26-year-old Chechnya-born fighter recently took to Instagram to say he’s “done” with his professional career. This announcement came just a couple of days after calling out Neil Magny for a fight in June.
Via Google Translate:
I want to say thank you to everyone for their support in my path in this sport. I think I’m done.
