For UFC fans, a Khamzat Chimaev fight is currently overdue. But who is to blame for Khamzat’s lack of activity in the octagon? Borz is not accepting responsibility; instead, he is blaming UFC for not offering him a fight yet.
After six fights and winning each one, the Swedish MMA fighter is still unbeaten in the UFC. Last year, the 28-year-old fighter won against Gilbert Burns and Kevin Holland. The welterweight fighter insists that division toppers avoid him on purpose, hence he has been looking for a significant fight for months now.

In a recent Tweet once again Borz made sure to the fans that even though he wants to continue his octagon adventure, he is unable to do so at the moment. The former Swedish national wrestling champion is continuing to train hard but is unsure about his next fight.
What did Khamzat Chimaev say in his most recent tweets?
“I have no problems with fights, if they gave me a fight, I would have fought a long time ago, I did so many training camps and not one fight, the problem is definitely not with me, prepared in dubai then to thailand, why do I train so much if there is no fight, I don’t understand. ” Chimaev tweeted.

Leon Edwards, the current welterweight champion, Israel Adesanya, the current middleweight champion, Kamaru Usman, Belal Muhammad, Colby Covington, and Robert Whittaker are all on the list.
Khamzat also stated that he is willing to compete against anyone, whether they are middleweights or welterweights. Borz had indicated an interest in taking on The Last Stylebender following his enormous victory over Alex Pereira.
