UFC 273 Reaction: Chimaev Is the Real Deal, Aljo Puts on a Clinic & Volkanovski’s Featherweight GOAT Push

To begin today's show, Chael offers his immediate reactions to UFC 273 from Saturday night. He discusses what Khamzat Chimaev's slugfest win over Gilbert Burns tells us about the young phenom, how Aljamain Sterling turned in one of the best performances in bantamweight history (9:28), and how Alexander Volkanovski overcame an impressive mental hurdle against The Korean Zombie (18:02). Then, Chael talks about Volkanovski's path to stardom, as well as how Kamaru Usman might be feeling about Chimaev's rise (42:02).
