The headline fight has been announced for UFC 279, which will feature Khamzat Chimaev and Nate Diaz in what is said to be Diaz’s final fight on his UFC contract and will likely be the toughest test of Chimaev’s career so far.

Khamzat Chimaev anticipates the same result many fans and observers do in his UFC 279 fight against Nate Diaz.

In response to a new promo for the welterweight matchup on Sept. 10 in Las Vegas, Chimaev posted a coffin emoji with the 209 area code, a reference to the Stockton, Calif., territory Diaz calls home.
