Haven't they announced that the winner of Chimaev Vs Usman will get a shot against Strickland? I've heard that somewhere but don't know if it was only a rumour or confirmed information.

I think Forbes is Legit to say this but this is an article that I have read getting information about this fight for sure Kamaru Usman is targeting a fast route for the title shot and if he wins against Khamzat Chimaev that is, for me, Chimaev is most dangerous to the ground than Kamaru Usman, I really don't want to discredit the wrestling of Usman but going against Leon that is a pure striker he is having a hard time with Leon Edwards Takedown defense so, in my opinion, Khamzat Chimaev has a more advantage wrestling than Usman for sure,
