What prevented Khamzat Chimaev from finishing Dricus Du Plessis despite the utter domination? "A lot of mistakes," according to Kamaru Usman.

UFC 319 is shaping up to be a blockbuster this weekend, delivering a stacked card topped by a high-stakes middleweight title bout between reigning champion Dricus du Plessis and dangerous challenger Khamzat Chimaev.

UFC lightweight star advised Khamzat Chimaev to stick to his game plan during a crucial round of his UFC 319 title fight.

UFC CEO Dana White expressed a willingness to grant Chimaev his wish if he's serious about it. If it comes to fruition, de Ridder thinks he is the correct contender to be standing on the other side of the cage.

The coach of Makhachev and Khabib is not the only prominent name defending Chimaev’s approach in the aftermath of UFC 319.

Newly-crowned middleweight champion, Khamzat Chimaev, returned home to United Arab Emirates (UAE) following his Dricus du Plessis victory atop the UFC 319 pay-per-view (PPV) event last weekend in Chicago.
