Sean Strickland next eh..? There's a possibility that the UFC could be disappointed with their build up for Chimaev. Lol. Usman is no slouch. If it were not for the lucky head kick from Leon Edwards, I don't think any book would line him up as this huge of an underdog. Don't write him off this early imho. He's training back with Henri Hooft and he'll also get Trevor Whitman in his corner at the same time. He's a D1 wrestler, has the KO power and has beaten some some of the better guys in the UFC.
I mean sure Chim should be the favorite as Usman is taking this on short notice. But for the line they're giving Chim, do you guys think he'll give Usman a total beating? I don't think so.
UFC 294: Embedded Episode 3https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9xZY7g9FWhoFor sure Dana White has promised Leon Edwards to fight whoever wins the fight between Khamzat Chimaev and Kamaru Usman that is why Kamaru Usman accepted this fight and me, this is going to be a brutal fight, in my opinion, Chimaev is a beast in the ground for sure Kamaru Usman will surely have a hard time against Chimaev, in my opinion, Khamzat Chimaev will Smash him for sure, I can surely feel it,
Well, watching the video I can see that Alexander Volkanovski looks ready while the Khabib Nurmagomedov fight camp they are having a Dagestan Basketball as the defender is allowed to hug his opponent for sure, and Kamaru Usman and Khamzat Chimaev surely have an interview on a webcam, but for sure Both guys is having a respect for each other,

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e4TauRH1t1I&t=661s And in this old video for sure he is just making many excuses on how he losses towards the fight which I think he doesn't need to do such things a lost is a lost and he can not do something to change that but to accept it all,
