The knockout win got here in Jordan towards Ikram Aliskerov and helped to take Khamzat as much as 5-0 in his combined martial arts profession.
In whole, all through his ten victories, he’s obtained six knockouts and 4 submissions on his resume with a two and two cut up within the Final Combating Championship.
In fact, everyone knows what Gilbert Burns brings to the desk as a former title challenger – and “Durinho” isn’t the type of man to again down from a problem. If Chimaev is critical about going all the best way and taking up Usman, he could have to face the truth of a 3rd spherical for the primary time since turning skilled.

What has been essentially the most spectacular win of Khamzat Chimaev’s profession thus far? Do you assume he must be such a powerful favorite towards Gilbert Burns or are bookmakers underestimating what he can do on the elite degree?
