Former UFC champion in two weight classes Henry Cejudo, who has recently been actively developing his YouTube channel, discussed the topic of a possible fight between the title holder in the promotion’s middle division Sean Strickland And Khamzat Chimaev.

“I used to think that Khamzat would destroy Strickland. But now I really doubt it. Sean is a natural middleweight and he will fight, he will chop you down. So I changed my mind about the winner of this fight.

For the second time in his life, Khamzat fought with an elite fighter, and I got the opportunity to evaluate him. Did Chimaev defeat Kamaru Usman? 100 percent. But will he have the strength to take Strickland to the ground round after round? In the third round against Usman, Khamzat looked tired. If Shawn can stay on his feet, and he can, I’m putting my money on him to win,” Cejudo said.

Let us remind you that on October 21, at the UFC 294 tournament, Chimaev defeated Usman by majority decision and staked his claim to a title fight in the middleweight division.
