Dana White’s Reaction Says It All as Shavkat Rakhmonov Seals His 15th MMA Finish in a Row in Stunning Fashion

UFC President Dana White hyped up his new welterweight prospect, Shavkat Rakhmonov, as the Kazakhstani finished yet another fight at the promotion.

The ‘Nomad’ Shavkat Rakhmonov created history once again, as he knocked out his opponent, Carlston Harris, in the first round of their bout at UFC Vegas 47.

White took to Twitter to celebrate the new welterweight phenomenon, that is, Rakhmonov, who secured his fifteenth finish in as many fights. He tweeted, “#NowYouKnow,” in his signature style.

Rakhmonov has been ripping into his opponents ever since he started in the UFC. On his promotional debut, the Kazakhstani had fought and finished Alex Oliveira at UFC 254: Nurmagomedov vs. Gaethje.

In his last fight at UFC Fight Night: Gane vs. Volkov, he made quick work of Michel Prazeres with a rear-naked choke submission in the second round.

Can Dana White set up a Khamzat Chimaev vs. Shavkat Rakhmonov bout?

Shavkat Rakhmonov is a fighter in the welterweight division, who is just clearing his opponents with ease by early finishes. Sounds familiar? It does to most MMA fans as they compare the ‘Nomad’ with the Russian-born Swedish UFC sensation, i.e. Khamzat Chimaev.

Ever since he stepped foot in the UFC, Rakhmonov has been treading on similar lines as ‘Borz’. Hence, many fight fans want both ace athletes to compete against each other. However, it doesn’t seem possible at the moment as Rakhmonov isn’t ranked.

Khamzat Chimaev, on the other hand, is aiming at the top for the welterweight strap, which rests on the shoulders of Kamaru Usman. At the moment, ‘Borz’ is engaged in a back-and-forth with welterweight #2 Gilbert Burns and may fight him at UFC 273.

Hence, it’s safe to say that UFC President Dana White won’t be in a hurry to book Shavkat Rakhmonov against ‘Borz’ Khamzat Chimaev, unless ‘Nomad’ raises his stock in the UFC quickly.
