Khamzat Chimaev and Gilbert Burns got the chance to size each other up earlier today in Jacksonville, Florida.<\/p>\n

The welterweight standouts, Chimaev (10-0 MMA) and Burns (20-4 MMA), are set to collide on the main card of Saturday\u2019s UFC 273 pay-per-view event.<\/p>\n

It is a highly anticipated matchup with the winner likely being rewarded with a future welterweight title shot.<\/p>\n

Khamzat Chimaev has gone 4-0 inside of the Octagon<\/a> since bursting on to the scene at Fight Island. \u2018Borz\u2019 is coming off a dominant first round submission victory over Li Jingliang in his most recent effort at UFC 267 (see that here<\/a>).<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, Gilbert Burns returned to the win column his last time out, scoring a unanimous decision victory over fellow former welterweight title challenger Stephen Thompson. That win was of course preceded by a TKO loss to reigning 170lbs kingpin Kamaru Usman.<\/p>\n

While the pair have exchanged some jabs and low blows on social media, there appeared to be nothing but respect between Khamzat Chimaev and Gilbert Burns when they crossed paths earlier today. Check out the footage of their encounter below (via Nick Baldwin<\/a>):<\/p>\n

While it was all smiles on Wednesday, things will definitely heat up in the days to come as the two contenders prepare to go to battle inside of the cage.<\/p>\n

Khamzat Chimaev has made it clear that he believes he is better than anyone in the welterweight division and will get the chance to prove that when he takes on \u2018Durinho\u2019 this Saturday night.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe people talk about top, top 10, top 5, doing these things. If somebody stands in my way, I\u2019m going to kill them,\u201d Chimaev said in a UFC promo video<\/a>. \u201cDon\u2019t stand in my way. I\u2019m here, undefeated, undisputed, I\u2019m the champ, I\u2019m the king, I come for everyone.\u201d<\/p>\n
