‘Fraud’ Khamzat Chimaev’s Resume Under Scrutiny As His Ex-Opponent Gilbert Burns Loses To Sean Brady In UFC Last Night
Khamzat Chimaev, Gilbert Burns and Sean Brady
There’s a saying that tough times and tough places create tough people, and Khamzat Chimaev embodies this perfectly, coming from a war-torn country. It seems the hardships have made him nearly unbeatable, as he remains undefeated in his career. However, after Gilbert Burns lost to Sean Brady at UFC Vegas 97, fans started criticizing Chimaev. He’s been mocked for fighting opponents who are currently on an eight-fight losing streak combined. Many are questioning if Chimaev’s impressive record is more about the opponents he’s faced rather than his own skill and resilience.
For those who don’t know, Chimaev’s last three opponents—Gilbert Burns, Kevin Holland, and Kamaru Usman—are all currently on losing streaks. When the Casual MMA account on X pointed this out, suggesting that Chimaev’s top opponents are all in a slump, it only fueled more ridicule from fans.
One fan mentioned that if Khamzat thinks his wrestling will automatically win him the fight, he’s about to be in for a severe reality check.
On the other hand, some fans called him a fraud.
Meanwhile, one fan is excited to see him face Robert Whittaker to watch him get knocked out of the sport.
Likewise, one fan fired off, calling him an “overrated clown” who pulls out of fights and ruins events, and he is also eager to see him being exposed against Whittaker.
UFC 308: Khamzat Chimaev Returns to Fight Against Robert Whittaker
When the Chechen fighter first joined the UFC, there was huge excitement due to his dangerous appearance and fighting style. However, his frequent withdrawals from fights due to health issues have made some fans wary about his career. Regularly pulling out of fights is not a good sign, and this is why he had to withdraw from UFC Saudi Arabia.
Meanwhile, he’s been booked to fight ‘Bobby Knuckles’ as the co-main event for the upcoming UFC 308. With the middleweight division being so dynamic, the winner could be in line for a title shot after Sean Strickland. Fans are backing Chimaev as the favorite for this fight, but it will be interesting to see if his frequent health issues have taken a toll on him or if he’s still at his best.
