Khamzat Chimaev has dismissed Kamaru Usman's chances against Canelo Alvarez in a boxing match.

On Twitter, the rising welterweight star took aim at Usman by commenting on an article about Ali Abdelaziz's bold claims. In the aforementioned story, Abdelaziz claimed that 'The Nigerian Nightmare' would knock out Alvarez should they meet in the ring. 'Borz' simply responded by posting a facepalm emoji in the replies.

Usman hasn't been shy about his intention to cross over into the boxing world for a high-profile matchup against the Mexican superstar. 'The Nigerian Nightmare' even teased a meeting with Canelo Alvarez during an interview with TMZ Sports. According to Usman:

"2022, I'm going to shock the world. In July, I'm going to fight Leon Edwards. God willing, I get through Leon Edwards, then in September, Mexican Independence Day, I will stop Canelo Alvarez."

Ali Abdelaziz says Kamaru Usman will KO Canelo Alvarez in three rounds

MMA manager Ali Abdelaziz is of the opinion that his client, Kamaru Usman, could knock out middleweight world champion Canelo Alvarez. During an interview with MMA Junkie, Abdelaziz claimed:

"Kamaru will knock him out in three rounds. You cannot say no to Kamaru. He’s a guy who comes from Africa. He jumped a lot of obstacles. I believe in Kamaru. This is the difference between me and other people. I believe in him, I live with him, I breathe with him, I die with him, I fight with him. He’s a special person in my life."

Abdelaziz also said that his client didn’t just want to test himself against any boxer. With that in mind, Usman is apparently targeting the top pound-for-pound boxer in the world and nobody else.
