Khamzat Chimaev has some lofty goals and championship gold is involved.<\/p>\n

Chimaev has been taking the MMA world by storm with his fast rise. “Borz” has a perfect pro record of 10-0 and he is 4-0 under the UFC banner. He has decimated his opposition and has been linked to a potential showdown with Gilbert Burns<\/a> at UFC 273 in April.<\/p>\n

Khamzat Chimaev hasn’t been afraid to dream big. During an interview with RT Sport<\/a>, the number 11-ranked UFC welterweight said he’s hoping to capture two or three UFC titles.<\/p>\n

“Well, probably getting a few more championship belts. Becoming the best. I don’t want to be just a regular guy who won one belt. I want two or three belts. We’ll see, if I can do it I will do it. We may make our plans, but God has the last word.”<\/em><\/p>\n

Chimaev last competed back in Oct. 2021 when he shared the Octagon with Li Jingliang. The bout didn’t last long as Chimaev secured the technical submission via rear-naked choke in the first round.<\/p>\n

In the fight prior, Chimaev left MMA fans in awe with his performance against Gerald Meerschaert. This was a middleweight fight that ended in 17 seconds courtesy of one punch from “Borz.”<\/p>\n

Chimaev has made it clear that if he does indeed mix it up with Gilbert Burns at UFC 273, he doesn’t see “Durinho” as a real threat to his undefeated record (via RT Sport).<\/p>\n

\u201cAll those numbers mean nothing. To be honest, I don\u2019t see a real challenge in him. We\u2019ll see. Everything may happen in a fight, but I am confident as usual,\u201d Chimaev said to RT Sport. \u201cI think I will just smash him with my skills and power. I feel that way. He might feel different, but I will go there and do what I did the last time.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n
