Khamzat Chimaev actually had to go until the second period to get a victory but the result was still the same as the former UFC champion dominated Gilbert Burns in the RAF 13 co-main event.
While he did give up a couple of takedowns, Chimaev never slowed down and he kept racking up the points until the score got to 15-4, which ended the match as the Chechen mauler moved to 3-0 in RAF. Now Chimaev is looking to add some gold to his resume.
“Of course, why not? He has the belt,” Chimaev said about facing RAF crossover champion Colby Covington next.
A quick double-leg takedown attempt from Chimaev pushed Burns out of bounds to secure an easy point.
