Khamzat Chimaev open to boxing Conor McGregor under Zuffa Boxing

Khamzat Chimaev has stated he would be willing to participate in a boxing match against Conor McGregor under the Zuffa Boxing banner. This represents a potential crossover bout between two of combat sports' most prominent figures. Zuffa Boxing is the UFC parent company's boxing promotional venture, which could facilitate such a matchup. Details about whether serious discussions have occurred or if this is merely Chimaev expressing interest remain unclear. McGregor has previously competed in professional boxing against Floyd Mayweather in 2017. Chimaev's willingness to box McGregor adds another potential high-profile opponent to the conversation around both fighters' futures.
