‘Chaos’ told SB Nation he has been practicing moves and understanding the art of wrestling. He added that he has been at work on his promo skills, not that they need much of polishing. Furthermore, he adds that he aims to “make wrestling real again.”
For now, though he remains with the UFC and has been calling out Jorge Masvidal and Kamaru Usman. He claims he wasn’t at his best at UFC 245 and positioned himself as the most sensible option for ‘the Nigerian Nightmare’ to fight. A clash against fellow ATT member ‘Gamebred’ too could entice a lot of fans as there is tension between the two.
As the world returns to normal ‘Chaos’ will get his fights. It remains to be seen if he will back his loud rants with equally loud performances.
