UFC chief Dana White, He explained why Khamzat Chimaev was able to become a great star after his victory at UFC 319.
We all know that Dana White loves having great names that make large numbers in the UFC template. Of course it is not as important as before the agreement with ESPN, That anyway generated a fortune to the company, but it is still important. Khamzat Chimaev undoubtedly feels like the next fighter to reach that position after dominating Dricus du Plessis on Saturday night to become the new medium weight champion of the UFC.
From now on, it will be interesting to see how Dana White and programmers decide to book Khamzat. There are many options for him in several categories of weight, but given his tendency to be inactive, it is worth asking if they will press to return more frequently.
In his press conference after the fight, Dana White talked openly about the stellar power that Khamzat Chimaev now has in mixed martial arts.
Yes. That is, it is now a great star. When you ask me, how much bigger can it be? Don't know. We'll see. But it is already a great star. Everything in this fight was great, from the payment per event to all the figures we were seeing, and simply be here in Chicago … the last three days here they felt great. He, tonight in the sand, the sand was crazy. Yes, it's a star.
