“He’s going to go back home and kiss the dictator” - Sean Strickland slams Khamzat Chimaev for stalling the entire UFC division over his injury
Sean Strickland has fiercely criticized UFC middleweight champion Khamzat Chimaev, calling the division "on ice" due to Chimaev's delayed return post-surgery and Ramadan. Strickland, who refused a fight in Australia over taxes, expressed frustration over Chimaev's infrequent activity and his potential next fight in 2026, deeming the middleweight title currently inactive.
