Borralho is about to secure a title shot at the middleweight king Khamzat Chimaev #UFCParis<\/a><\/p>\n

Imavov\u2019s composure is breaking Caio Borralho\u2019s confidence. Borralho needs to turn this into a fire fight #UFCParis<\/a><\/p>\n

10-9 Imavov. Borralho is not going to win this fight moving backwards. Adjustments must be made! #UFCParis<\/a><\/p>\n

Borralho needs to keep firing those calf kicks to slow Imavov\u2019s movement #UFCParis<\/a><\/p>\n

\u2014 Henry Cejudo (@HenryCejudo) September 6, 2025<\/a><\/p>\n

29-28 Imavov. Momentum is with Borralho #UFCParis<\/a><\/p>\n

Great win for Imavov but I think the winner of RDR\/Fluffy is getting the next title shot #UFCParis<\/a><\/p>\n

\u2014 Henry Cejudo (@HenryCejudo) September 6, 2025<\/a><\/p>\n

Another marquee win for Imavov. Tough because I\u2019m wondering what the game plan was of Borralho. I thought he would\u2019ve been looking for the takedown a little more frequently but it seems like he was content to stand up and fight.<\/p>\n

Hey<\/p>\n

Who would you like to see Imavov fight next following his victory over Borralho this afternoon in France?<\/p>\n
