After his UFC 273 win over Gilbert Burns, undefeated welterweight contender Khamzat Chimaev has gotten more push. But even before Saturday night, “Borz” had been confident about his chances against the division’s elite, including reigning champion Kamaru Usman.
For many, Chimaev’s performance against “Durinho” may have established his place towards the top of the division. But if you ask UFC veteran Brian Stann, the 27-year-old Sweden-based fighter should exercise a little more patience.
“If I’m managing him, don’t be in such a rush,” Stann said on The MMA Hour on Monday.
