UFC welterweight fighter Vicente Luque commented on the possibility of a fight with a Swedish fighter of Chechen origin Khamzat Chimaev.
“I understand what the UFC needs: they want to organize a big fight for Chimaev. Many people ask me about the duel with Khamzat. I’m here and if he calls my name (and I haven’t heard him mention it) and the UFC sends me a contract, I’ll sign it. No problem.
I think it will be an exciting fight. Khamzat — a real beast: he goes forward and every second he tries to finish off his opponent. It’s not much different from my fighting style. If he wants a fight, let the UFC know and they let me know, we’ll do it! If this fight takes place, then we should fight five rounds in the main event. Any other format doesn’t make sense. It’s a big fight and he should head the show,” Luque said in a video on the Haymakers YouTube channel.
On account of the 27-year-old Chimaev 10 victories in 10 MMA fights. In the UFC, he competes in the welterweight and middleweight divisions.
