Firas Zahabi: If Khamzat Chimaev Trains With Me, He’ll Never Lose

The former coach for the legendary Georges St-Pierre wants to ensure Borz never suffers defeat again.

In the headliner of UFC 328, the Middleweight Championship was on the line between champion, Khamzat Chimaev and bitter rival, Sean Strickland. In the end, the two had a very close fight that would be awarded by split decision to Strickland to become a two-time Middleweight Champion in the UFC.

After Firas Zahabi saw the fight, he put out a video on his YouTube Channel urging Chimaev to come train with him and that Zahabi could ensure that Borz would never lose another fight in his career ever again.

“I’m begging you. Somebody get this out there,” Zahabi said on his YouTube channel. “Khamzat, come train with me. Come to Montreal. Come train with me. I promise you, if you come train with me, you’re not going to fade. I promise you. Come and train with me. Bring Arman Tsarukyan. Khamzat Chimaev, Arman Tsarukyan, come train with me. Come see how we prepare to make sure that your fitness level will be better than ever, your striking will be sweeter than ever, your footwork will be sweeter than ever. I promise you.

“If Khamzat Chimaev, you come and train with me, this will never happen to you again. So I really hope he gets this message. Please come train with me and Georges St-Pierre, and we will make sure that we do our absolute best to get your hand raised, no matter what the cost, what the energy expenditure, how many hours we have to do, we will focus on you getting your hand raised. So, if Khamzat Chimaev is listening, or anybody who knows him, get this message to him. Please let him know he’s more than welcome, and I would love to have him as soon as possible training at my facility.”

Chimaev had told Dana White that he wanted to move up to the Light Heavyweight division, despite that, rumors have surfaced that he wants a rematch for the gold in Abu Dhabi, no word yet on if that’s being planned.
