Such an excellent record has to be compared with Chimayev, another popular spicy chicken of UFC. Both of them are 27 years old, and MMA has an unbeaten career, with an ending rate of 100% (Chimayev ended with an overall winning rate of 10, and now ranks in welterweight16,5438+0). Before UFC debuted in 2020, both of them were potential players who received much attention. Since then, both of them have occupied a dominant position in the octagon.
However, Shafqat himself doesn't like people's comparisons, and he hopes this comparison can stop. Recently, he said in an interview: "I am very angry because I am not Chimayev, I am Shafqat." "This is the most frequently asked question. Time will tell us when to play this game. Now I'm just annoyed with this question. "
In fact, Chimayev's current goal is to win the championship as soon as possible, while Rakhmonov is content to improve his ranking in welterweight. He said that he hoped to play against Michel Pereira in the next match.
Rakhmonov said: "I think he is a very exciting soldier." . "He is a very interesting fighter when playing against opponents. I just want to show myself. I can stop him. I can kill him. He can't compete with me like that. "
Pereira is currently ranked lower, but his gorgeous fighting style is deeply loved by fighting fans, and he is currently in a four-game winning streak at UFC. However, Shafqat, as a Muslim, Ramadan is coming, and his game will be held after Ramadan. Rakhmonov hopes that the next match will be arranged this summer. He said: "The end of June or the beginning of July will be the perfect choice."
