Chimaev vs. Burns Rematch Set for RAF 13 Event

Khamzat Chimaev and Gilbert Burns are set to clash in a rematch, this time under freestyle wrestling rules. The highly anticipated bout will take place at the "Real American Freestyle" event in Miami on September 18th.

The wrestling match will serve as the main undercard bout for the RAF 13 gala.

Fans will recall their epic encounter at UFC 273 in 2022, where after three grueling rounds, the Chechen fighter was declared the winner by split decision.

Burns announced his retirement from professional MMA earlier this year, while Chimaev recently suffered a defeat in a championship bout, losing his middleweight title.
