After winning his first four Ultimate Fighting Championship bouts, Khamzat Chimaev has risen to No. 11 in the promotionâs latest welterweight rankings and is just waiting for a call to confirm his Octagon return.
âIf it were up to him, I think he would fight every month. I never worked with someone so competitive,â Alan Nascimento, Chimaevâs Brazilian jiu-jitsu coach, told Sherdog.com.
According to Nascimento, Chimaev will sleep in the academy whenever he has a UFC fight announced.
âHe just doesn't want to lose time, so he moves into a room inside the academy during the whole camp,â Nascimento said.
