The 26-year-old Chimaev dominated in his UFC debut last week when he defeated the experienced Welshman John Phillips via submission. Now the Swede is rewarded with a new match in his regular weight class.

In the debut, Chimaev went up one class (84 kilos) but when Rhys McKee faces the opposition on Saturday, Chimaev is back in the 77-kilo class.

- I will go in and win my match and take home the win to Sweden, Chimaev says to SVT Sport.

"Will not change that much"

McKee has not yet played any matches in the UFC but has won ten of his 13 professional matches.

- I will not change much from the previous match. I have not planned that much yet but we will watch his (McKee) matches and plan later, says Chimaev.

What would it mean to you if you win again?

- Not only if, I will win - how I win does not matter, says a victorious Kamzat Chimaev.

Gustafsson makes a comeback at the same gala

During the same gala as Chimaev goes to his second match, Alexander "The Mauler" Gustafsson also makes a comeback in the octagon. 33-year-old Gustafsson, who has not competed since the loss to Anthony Smith just over a year ago, will meet former UFC champion Fabricio Werdum on Saturday.
