Michael Bisping believes Khamzat Chimaev can fight for the title
UFC contender Khamzat Chimaev recently expressed his desire to fight for the title. However, fans disagreed with his stance due to his inactivity. They believe Borz has to work his way up to fight for the middleweight gold.
Former UFC middleweight champion Michael Bisping took to his YouTube video to share his thoughts on the matter. The Brit gave his own roadmap on how Khamzat Chimaev can ultimately fight for the title. The Count also believes that inactivity prohibits Borz from fighting for the title in his next bout.
Khamzat Chimaev pulled out of the fight against Robert Whittaker after he fell ill. The Count believes UFC has to reschedule the bout, so that Borz can prove a point incase of a potential victory against The Reaper.
Bisping believes a three-round fight against Whittaker can help Chimaev due to his well documented cardio issues he faces. The former fighter believes this potential victory would set him up against the middleweight champion.
However, he believes Sean Strickland’s chances of earning a title shot would be diminished. Bisping claims Khamzat Chimaev would pass Tarzan, as he had previously mentioned waiting for a title shot.
“The fight that would, I’ll be honest, set up the next number one contender. And that’s a shame for Sean Strickland,” said Michael Bisping. He complimented Khamzat Chimaev and believes in his abilities to become the UFC middleweight champion.
