Khamzat Chimaev, already booked to wrestle for RAF this Saturday in Moscow, already has agreed to his next match two weeks later.
Colby Covington spent the entirety of his mixed martial arts career at 170 lbs. Khamzat Chimaev is the opposite. Chimaev spent the majority of his early UFC career at welterweight before jumping up to 185 lbs, with rumors also suggesting he may move up to 205 lbs in the near future.
Jake Paul fighting Tyron Woodley under MMA rules in a trilogy clash is the biggest bout MVP-PFL can do, according to the ex-UFC champ.
Covington is 4-0 since joining RAF. The All-American wrestler won the inaugural RAF Cruiserweight Crossover Championship with a win over Arman Tsarukyan in July. He's serious about the Chimaev matchup, but it's got to be at a reasonable weight. Covington is not down to face Chimaev in a 200-pound catchweight as some have suggested.
