Neil Magny calls out Khamzat Chimaev after tying Georges St-Pierre's welterweight record at UFC Columbus

Neil Magny, with a split decision win against Max Griffin at UFC Columbus, managed to make history by equalling the records set by Georges St-Pierre. He subsequently went on to train his aim at welterweight sensation Khamzat Chimaev.

While in conversation with Daniel Cormier during the post-fight octagon interview, Magny was asked who he would like to fight next. He went on to call upon UFC president Dana White to set him on a collision course with 'Borz':

"Bro, Dana White, Khamzat Chimaev. I'm ready to go. I've been chasing this fight for over a year, it still hasn't happened yet. Khamzat Chimaev, I'm coming for you."

However, Magny is in for a lengthy waiting period to lock horns with Khamzat Chimaev as he prepares to take on Gilbert Burns at UFC 273 that is set to take place on April 9 at the VyStar Veterans Memorial Arena in Jacksonville, Florida.
