    Luke Rockhold claims Khamzat Chimaev turned down UFC middleweight main event fight

    In this video, Patrick Auger, Ant Walker, and Drake Riggs discuss the news that Khamzat Chimaev apparently declined to fight Rockhold.

    It appears that Khamzat Chimaev turned down a fight with former UFC middleweight champion Luke Rockhold.

    Ariel Helwani revealed that Rockhold had informed him that Chimaev declined to fight the former champion on August 28 in a middleweight main event matchup. It is suggested that Chimaev has plans to stay at welterweight.

    Rockhold is now looking to fight a top-ranked 185-pound fighter in his return to the division later this year.
