Khamzat Chimaev Targets UFC Three-Division Glory, Not Focused on Protecting Undefeated Record

Khamzat Chimaev wants to achieve three-division glory in the UFC and says he does not care about compromising his undefeated record in the process.
The undefeated Chechen-born Emirati became the UFC middleweight champion last year at UFC 319 by ragdolling Dricus du Plessis and securing more than 21 minutes of control time enroute to a unanimous decision win.

Due to a minor foot injury, “Borz” is currently sidelined and will undergo surgery.

Chimaev is yet to make thefirst defense of his middleweight title. However, the 31-year-old already has big plans.
