Welterweight from Sweden Khamzat Chimaev spoke about his acquaintance with interim UFC bantamweight champion Petr Yan.
“We know Peter. Petya Yan is a machine,” Chimaev said on the Hustle MMA podcast. – We don’t know each other so closely, but we saw each other a couple of times [в Абу-Даби на UFC 267]”.
Chimaev and Yan performed at the UFC 267 tournament, which took place on October 30 in Abu Dhabi. Chimaev defeated a native of China Li Jingliang with a choke hold. Yan defeated American Corey Sandhagen via unanimous decision.
