Sean Strickland, UFC middleweight champion, spoke about his conflict with Khamzat Chimaev.
“One day I called this Chechen, and he misunderstood my words. It was a compliment in his direction, and Khamzat started writing me all sorts of crap in response. And then I said: “Chimaev, you didn’t understand me. But tomorrow we will meet at 3 o’clock and we will fight. With or without gloves, it makes no difference.” And do you know what happened? No show, no fight. Chimaev hushed up this topic. This is what he is all about. Of course this guy can fight. He can. But we are so damn different. If Chimaev were here now, I could fight him to the death. No questions"
