Dana White revealed that Khamzat Chimaev approached him immediately after his fight and stated he wants to move up to 205 pounds. Chimaev told White that he no longer wants to compete in the middleweight division. White acknowledged the move is interesting, though he hadn't yet considered potential matchups for Chimaev at light heavyweight. This represents a significant weight class change for Chimaev, who has primarily competed at middleweight and welterweight in the UFC.
