Bo Nickal is confident that a fight between him and Khamzat Chimaev would do massive numbers.
Both undefeated and boasting strong grappling bases, Nickal (7-0 MMA, 4-0 UFC) has been angling to fight Chimaev (14-0 MMA, 8-0 UFC) since he’s entered the UFC. The pair have exchanged words in the past, but Chimaev is far ahead of Nickal in the title race.
Nickal takes on former ONE Championship title holder Reiner De Ridder (19-2 MMA, 2-0 UFC) in a three-round middleweight bout May 3 at UFC on ESPN 67 from Wells Fargo Arena in Des Moines, Iowa.
