Khamzat Chimaev is the brand new UFC middleweight champion as he dominated Dricus du Plessis for 25 lopsided minutes in the main event of UFC 319. Now that Chimaev has shown he can deliver big results in a five-round fight, is there anybody at middleweight who can beat him?
Following Saturday’s pay-per-view event, MMA Fighting’s Mike Heck and Jed Meshew react to the card, Chimaev’s impressive showing, the fan reaction, and who could be next for “Borz” and du Plessis. Additionally, they recap Lerone Murphy’s Knockout of the Year contender against Aaron Pico, Murphy getting champ Alexander Volkanovski’s attention, where Pico goes after the brutal knockout loss in his octagon debut, other standout moments, and much more.
