Quick read
The Real American Fighting (RAF) wrestling league has officially announced the signing of UFC middleweight contender Khamzat Chimaev to compete in their organization. The announcement is brief and does not provide details about when Chimaev will make his RAF debut or who he might face. RAF is a wrestling promotion that has attracted several MMA fighters to compete in pure wrestling matches. Chimaev, known for his dominant wrestling in MMA, will now test those skills in a wrestling-specific ruleset. This move follows the trend of high-level MMA wrestlers competing in specialized grappling and wrestling events outside of mixed martial arts competition.
