Gilbert Burns believes Khamzat Chimaev is being overhyped by new best pal Darren Till and top light-heavyweight Alexander Gustafson ahead of their fight.
The Brazilian and the Swede will meet this weekend at UFC 273 in what is a huge step-up in opponent for Chimaev since he signed with the UFC and exploded on to the scene with four quick finishes. But despite being ranked nine spots higher in the world and having more than twice as many fights, Burns has been made a big underdog with bookies
Burns is undeterred however and believes he will be able to circumvent the Swede's powerful wrestling offence with his defensive grappling, and earn himself an upset victory. And he feels his rival's strengths are being slightly overblown by his close pals Till and Gustafson.
