Chimaev called the UFC champion gay: "We need to give the title back to normal people"

Undefeated UFC middleweight prospect Khamzat Chimaev has claimed that his division's champion, Dricus Du Plessis, is a homosexual.

"We need to give the title back to normal people. Right now, a gay man has the belt," Chimaev said in a conversation live on the X network with former UFC fighter Darren Till.

Recall that Du Plessis made the first defense of his belt on August 17 at UFC 305 in Perth, Australia, defeating Israel Adesanya with a choke hold.
