July 9th UFC signs Brave CF prospect Khamzat Chimaev 26 year old grappling dominant fighter 6-0 record.
Chimaev trains at the Allstar Training Center in Stockholm, Sweden. Training partners such as David Teymur and Daniel Teymur. Doesn’t spar with but learns from Alexander Gustafsson and Ilir Latiffi.
Rising Sweden prospect Khamzat Chimaev rewarded Swedish breakout fighter of the year because of his success for Brave CF. Now continue that success in the UFC by fighting SBG Ireland Fighter John Phillips.
Phillips will have his hands full as Chimaev is a great grappling who lifts his opponents and takes them down across the ring.
Chimaev (6-0 MMA, 0-0 UFC) is one of Europe’s top welterweight prospects. Moving up to middleweight for his promotional debut, Chimaev will look to keep his six-fight finishing streak alive. Chimaev was supposed to challenge for the Brave CF title in April in Stockholm, Sweden, but the event was canceled due to the COVID-19 outbreak.
