Khamzat Chimaev's Impressive Win Puts Him in Contention for UFC Middleweight Title Shot

The UFC middleweight title shot is currently uncertain, with Sean Strickland originally promised the next opportunity but UFC CEO Dana White's recent comments suggesting a possible change. Despite this, Strickland remains confident in his position as the next in line due to his win over Paulo Costa. There is speculation that the UFC may be hesitant to send Strickland to South Africa for the fight, but Khamzat Chimaev could potentially challenge for the title if he wins his upcoming fight against Nassourdine Imavov. In other UFC news, Ilia Topuria won the Featherweight Championship at UFC 308 via TKO in the third round.
