Khamzat Chimaev has never gone to the third-round in his professional MMA career

Khamzat Chimaev is considered the next big thing in the MMA world by several fans and pundits. He has finished all ten of his fights so far, six by knockout and four by submission.

Chimaev is 4-0 in the UFC and has competed in both the welterweight and middleweight divisions. He has also won the 'Performance of the Night' bonus award during all those victories.

Khamzat Chimaev, in September, became the fastest to 3-0 in the UFC’s modern era history (66 days). The former record was 105 days by Johnny Walker.

He has finished all opponents he’s faced (6 KO/TKO, 3 subs), incl. 6 in the 1st round. He never fought a 3rd RD in his pro career https://t.co/KFnWW96mxW

'Borz' has never been to round three in his career. He has seven first-round triumphs and three in the second round. He also possesses the record for the quickest three-fight winning streak in UFC's modern era history.

Khamzat Chimaev will reportedly face No.2-ranked welterweight contender Gilbert Burns next in January and if he wins that bout, he could possibly seal a title shot.
