Khamzat Chimaev emerged from UFC 267 with a win over a ranked opponent, another finish, another $50,000 fight-night bonus and even more hype.
UFC 267 was good in every way for the 27-year-old. UFC 268 could be even better.
Even four bouts and more than a year into his Octagon career, fans have little to go on when analyzing Chimaev as a complete fighter. In his few fights he’s racked up two knockout wins and two submission wins. His octagon time is – in total – 12:54. He’s absorbed one significant strike.
