“I hope that a win over [Nurmagomedov] gives me a chance for the title. I’ve been working hard for that and it will be six wins in a roll. A win over Khabib will be a big step forward. Khabilov is a thought opponent, but the fight against Khabib makes more sense for me… I’m pretty sure my ground game is better than Khabib’s, but we’re going to fight MMA; it’s another game… I’m one of the most underrated fighters in the UFC. With hard work and my faith in Jesus my chance will come for sure.”
