Daniel Cormier says it is time for Khamzat Chimaev to fight one of the UFC welterweight division’s best: Gilbert Burns.
Khamzat Chimaev vs. Gilbert Burns is the right fight to make, former two-division Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) titleholder Daniel Cormier says.
UFC fans have been salivating over who to pair Chimaev with after his steamrolling of Li Jingliang at UFC 267, which took place inside Etihad Area in Abu Dhabi, U.A.E. on Sat., Oct. 30. Cormier suggests Chiamaev (10-0) should battle the welterweight division’s second-ranked contender Burns (20-4).
