Media Bo Nickal: I visualize Chimaev when training, we will have the biggest fight in history

The sherdorks aren't gonna like this. You're not allowed to be confident unless you're some russian putz with a neckbeard.
 
I think this fight could happen in 12-24 months time. They'll probably both still be around. Bo started training down at ATT in 2019-2020, MW division is really shallow and even if Bo catches a loss there's no denying he has a natural aptitude for fighting, the striking fluidity, speed and power isn't something you see from a lot of high level wrestler converts in quite the same way. I have a suspicion Khamzat is going to struggle at 185 but has given up on making 170 so I'm not confident his hype train will stay in one piece but I think Bo will at least ascend well into the top 10 within 2 years time.

Yeah, I should've clarified. I don't think this fight will happen because not only will chimaev's hype train derail, I think he'll fly off the tracks and he'll be gone before this fight makes sense. His coach was interviewed recently basically saying chimaev is the money fight for any opponent, lmao, and chimaev basically should get a title shot right now. The way chimaev has made open challenges, but turned down REAL challenges from other fighters indicates that he thinks the same, so I doubt he would even consider a fight with Nickal for the next couple of years. It would be too hard and it wouldn't be for a belt.
 
I like Bo Nickal as a prospect, but he should be focusing and visualizing his next fight instead of giving any thought to a potential Khamzat fight.
 


It would be huge, I think he's probably the most hyped guy coming up that hasn't won a belt. I think that, eventually, us clashing is inevitable.
It's something that I visualize in my training, in a hard workout getting my last sprints in and my last reps in. So whether that fight comes in a year, 3 years or 5 years... whatever it is I'll be ready.

I do a lot of visualization and I see that fight being the main event in Raiders stadium and, you know, in front of whatever 100.000 people inside. I think it will be the biggest fight in UFC history,
so you know, only time will tell. I'm doing everything in my power to make the fight happen.


It's not the biggest fight in history but it will be an absolute banger when it happens, they'll probably fight more than once I'd say
 
Wtf? He hurt his knee. Why is his hairline taking a hit?
 
I agree that out of all the hypothetical big fights that can happen, Khamzat Chimaev vs Bo Nickal is one of them.

We found the one Bo nut hugger boys. Prob believes in Bo almost as much as Bo believes in himself lol
 
It amazes me when fighters still look past their current opponent. Is it just an act to make his current fight more hyped? He better live up to the expectations he is creating for himself.
 
Dude ducked his first fight. Make your own clout and rack up some wins rather than living off of someone else’s name before even fighting.

Sorry you don’t even deserve to mention Khamzats name. Dudes not a blip on his radar.
 
they just gotta give this guy time to develop and not rush the train
 
Wild he thinks so much about khamzat. There's so many possibilities they never fight, much less it being a big event.
 
I feel like it’s an inevitability, but everyone thought Rory McDonald would fight Eric Silva for a title at one point

How did he duck his first ufc fight…it was scheduled for December and now happening this weekend. Same opponent.
