Chimaev targets title return amid brief injury layoff and Burns clash
TL;DR
Khamzat Chimaev says he may need a short layoff to fix nagging hand injuries but expects to be back within a month or two, staying active with RAF and a Burns showdown in Miami; with the belt currently in flux, he plans to chase the UFC middleweight title again by targeting Nassourdine Imavov (or the title winner) when a new champion is crowned, and has hinted Borralho could be a future opponent.
