It is claimed that the new middleweight king, Khamzat Chimaev (below), will not face defeat on the UFC stage.

JUARA.NET – It is predicted that defeat will not be in the dictionary of UFC middleweight champion, Khamzat Chimaev in 2026.

Throughout 2025, he held just one fight.

The only duel was won by the Wolf.

Not a canned duel, UFC pitted Chimaev against middleweight champion, Dricus Du Plessis, last August.

Oblique comments came to the United Arab Emirates-Russia champion.

Not used to dueling five full rounds, it is predicted that stamina problems will bother him.

However, Chimaev actually performed extraordinary, where he was able to dominate the fight.

Pimblett believes this positive trend will continue in 2026.

“The Khamzat Champion,” he emphasized, in a podcast with another champion, Tom Aspinall, reported by Juara.net from the Championat transcript.
