Nassourdine Imavov Accepts Caio Borralho’s Callout
Nassourdine Imavov and Caio Borralho have agreed to a fight on social media.
Borralho has been calling out the French contender for a while now. However, Imavov didn’t pay heed and was preparing to be the backup for the middleweight title fight between Dricus Du Plessis and Khamzat Chimaev at UFC 319 in August.
However, Du Plessis said that he wasn’t interested in potentially facing Imavov as a replacment opponent if Chimaev were to withdraw from the main event. Regardless off the reason, Imavov has now decided to opt out of the backup slot and fight Borralho instead.
“No backup anymore. Conditions changed,” Imvaov wrote. “You wanted to talk son, I’m here, I'm gonna break you [Caio Borralho].”
