Former undisputed UFC welterweight champion, Kamaru Usman has predicted a stoppage victory over welterweight contender, Khamzat Chimaev in a potential future fight between the duo – with rumors linking the pair to a potential showdown later this year.
Usman, the current #1 ranked welterweight contender, has been sidelined since he headlined UFC 286 back in March in London, England – suffering a close, majority decision loss to Leon Edwards in the pair’s championship trilogy rubber-match.
As for Chimaev, the Chechen-born contender slipped from his #3 rank in the division earlier this month, amid a string of inactivity since September of last year.
