Khamzat Chimaev, at 27 years of age, standing 6’2″ tall, with a 75″ reach has virtually every physical advantage over his higher ranked opposition.
Younger, taller, longer-reach and larger: Khamazat is huge for the welterweight division.
Chimaev, though extremely dominant in his career thus far, is still largely an open book when it comes to how he will fair against high-level UFC competition.
A quick start to his UFC career began with a middleweight victory over John Phillips followed by a victory at 170lbs just 10 days later, over Rhys McKee.
Khamzat proved with the duo of finishes that not only is he dangerous, but he has absolutely no problem making the 170lbs limit.
After a quick KO win over middleweight Gerald Meerschaert, Chimaev picked up his most impressive win to date, over welterweight Li Jingliang.
