Having just regained his UFC middleweight belt, Israel Adesanya is being challenged. Even Khamzat Chimaev is hoping to cross paths with the Nigerian.
"Congratulations Stylebender, see you soon. Now it's my turn. Dana White, let's make it happen," wrote the Chechen-born Swede on Twitter.
Undefeated in MMA, Khamzat Chimaev has 12 wins in 12 outings. The 28-year-old fighter has waltzed between the middleweight and light heavyweight divisions.
For now, Israel Adesanya, author of 24 wins and 2 losses, says he has his head in the game. "I've been good, now I have to have some fun in Miami," he said when asked who his next opponent would be.
