Tyron Woodley Prepares for Khamzat Chimaev Matchup

Tyron Woodley is gearing up for his next match against Khamzat Chimaev on September 5, following a successful debut with Real American Freestyle (RAF) where he defeated Joaquin Buckley. This victory marked Woodley's first win in nearly nine years.

The upcoming event, RAF Moscow, will be the organization's first card in Russia and its second event outside the United States. Woodley, a former UFC welterweight champion, is aware of the challenges posed by Chimaev, who is known for his wrestling prowess.

Despite the formidable reputation of Chimaev, Woodley believes that the challenge will be comparable to that of Buckley, noting similarities in their strength and explosiveness. Woodley previously faced a tough period, losing seven consecutive fights before his recent win.
