Khamzat Chimaev says he’ll be ready for UFC 300, and if he doesn’t get the call, he’ll be none to pleased with the UFC and Dana White.

What’s his deal anyway? The has to be a reason for his inactivity and I’d be more likely to believe the Kadyrov connection makes it difficult to book him and fly him to certain parts of the world than Dana just putting him on ice for no reason. If there’s a buck to be made Dana’s going after it. Might also be that Khamzat fades hard so they’re reluctant to put him in a five rounder while the hype train is still in effect.

He also strikes me as a diva. Maybe he asks for too much.
