UFC 273 results, highlights: Khamzat Chimaev outpoints Gilbert ... (CBSSports.com)

Chimaev and Burns may well have put on the Fight of the Year on Saturday night in Jacksonville.

"I wanted to be 11-0 with 11 finishes. Chimaev popped back up to land a huge combination before a brawl ensued with Chimaev soon bleeding from his nose. "I go against the odds, I don't care. I won't stop." Just 15 months after he lost a shot at Kamaru Usman's welterweight title despite dropping the defending champion, the 35-year-old Burns routinely answered the huge strikes of Chimaev in order to hold his ground. This is just what I do for work to make money.

Khamzat Chimaev vs. Gilbert Burns full fight video highlights (MMA Fighting)

Khamzat Chimaev (11-0) made his much-anticipated return to the Octagon against Gilbert Burns (20-5) at the VyStar Veterans Memorial Arena in Jacksonville, Fla.

Chimaev still pressuring and Burns is all heart. Chimaev really content to a kickboxing match now and Burns goes for another single-leg but Chimaev is simply too big and strong for that. Burns stepped in and Chimaev caught him on the chin and now Burns is on his back and Chimaev with hammer fists. Chimaev landing some counters of his own, but Burns landing more. He’s against the fence and Chimaev is unloading shots! Burns is taking over with volume on the feet and he’s got Chimaev reacting to feints. Chimaev now starting to switch stances a lot and he’s getting his jab off. Burns has his wits but he’s swinging back from the bottom and Chimaev keeps hitting him. Burns still up against the cage and trying to move but Chimaev staying on him and landing a few shots. Burns gets up but is dragged back down, and Chimaev takes the back briefly before Burns escapes. Chimaev throws two teeps to back Burns up and then shoots a double. Burns even getting the jab going and he seems to have some timing down.

Khamzat Chimaev Passes First Tough Test at UFC 273, but He's Not ... (Bleacher Report)

Khamzat Chimaev is still undefeated, but he is clearly not invincible. The Chechen-born Swede returned to the UFC's Octagon in the middle bout of the UFC ...

Now we know he can take a hard shot. And while all three scored the fight in Chimaev's favor, it was clear as the decision was being read that something had changed. But we didn't know how he'd respond when the early finish failed to materialize. Given the way both men were fighting, it was frankly shocking that the judges were required, but that's the way it happened. Entering the fight, the widespread belief was that Chimaev would slice through his more experienced foe, whether he got the job done by way of knockout or submission. Despite their dwindling energy reserves, the pair continued to fight with extreme intensity for the entirety of that final round, pelting each other with punches that most likely would have stopped lesser fighters in their tracks.
