Bo Nickal is one of the top prospects on the UFC roster right now and he’s eager to test himself in a fight against another impressive talent, Khamzat Chimaev. Most fans understand the quality of both Nickal and Chimaev, so it isn’t hard to see them both continuing their winning ways for years to come. If that does happen, it can only be so long before they cross paths of course. The idea of a fight with Chimaev was floated to Nickal in the pre-fight interviews for his upcoming fight at UFC 285, and he was clearly just as open to it as he has been before:

“It would be huge. Obviously he has a lot of attention. He is probably the biggest, most hyped guy coming up right now that hasn’t won a belt yet. I think, eventually, us clashing is inevitable. That’s something that I visualize in my training and when I’m in a hard workout, getting my last bike sprint in, getting my last rep in, in the weight room, I’m visualizing that.”

“Whether that fight comes in a year, or in three years, or in five years, whatever it is, I’ll be ready. I do a lot of visualization and I see that fight happening as main event in Raiders’ Stadium in front of 100,0000 people. I think it would be the biggest event in UFC history. Only time will tell whether or not we actually get that, but I’m doing everything in my power to make that happen.”

Of course, Bo Nickal has more pressing matters at hand before a fight with Khamzat Chimaev comes to fruition. Nickal is booked to compete against Jamie Pickett in his UFC debut at UFC 285, and he’ll need a win here first before he even considers the next stages of his career. With that in mind, Nickal is focused on putting on a show for fans in his first fight for the promotion:

“I would obviously love to get a finish. I like to fight with exciting style and make sure that I put on a good show for the fans. But for me, success is just being the best version of myself and performing to the best of my abilities. So regardless of whether I finish him in a minute or win a decision in 15, I think as long as I perform the best and I feel like I gave 100 percent, then that’s a win in my book.”

The full interview with Bo Nickal where he explains how much he’s looking forward to a potential fight with Khamzat Chimaev was uploaded to the official YouTube channel of MMAJunkie:
