Khamzat Chimaev delivered one of the most dominant performances in Ultimate Fighting Championship history.
Stepping into the main event spotlight for his first title opportunity at UFC 319 in Chicago, ‘Borz’ outclassed Dricus Du Plessis for five rounds and emerged as the new undisputed middleweight world champion.
Despite logging a dozen takedowns and more than 21 minutes of control time throughout their five-round affair, Chimaev only banked one 10-8 round across the three scorecards handed in.
