Chimaev spoke about Strickland's championship

Undefeated mixed martial arts fighter Khamzat Chimaev, who will represent the UAE from his next performance, commented on winning the middleweight title Sean Strickland.

“He works hard, is in the gym all the time, and now he has a belt. He has a great team, a great coach - I was there and trained with this guy. Shawn stayed active and fought everyone, he earned this title.

Sean, if you stay up there, I’ll come for you!” Chimaev said in a release on his YouTube channel.

Let us remember that on September 10 at UFC 293, Strickland sensationally beat Israel Adesanya on points and took the championship title from him.
