Reality Check Handed to Conor McGregor, Colby Covington, and Alex Pereira as Khamzat Chimaev Turns Up His Honest Side

Khamzat Chimaev is probably out of action now due to the injury that he sustained by fighting Kamaru Usman. The fighter was supposed to be the number one contender for the UFC’s coveted middleweight championship belt but seems like Dricus Du Plessis still holds the fire ahead of him.

Nonetheless, in this situation, Chimaev reminds us about the time when he gave a one-word response to a rapid-fire question for certain prominent fighters. Let us dig in to understand what Chimaev had to say about Colby Covington, Conor McGregor, Alex Pereira, and more.

Khamzat Chimaev’s witty one-word response to fighters

Khamzat Chimaev is one of the most ruthless fighters in the realm of UFC who is known to be happy to fight anybody. ‘Borz’ has this demeanor of him that oozes aggressive energy. His famous catchphrase, “smash everybody,” encapsulates his fearless approach, demonstrating his readiness to take on all challengers.

Interestingly, there was a time when Chimaev was asked what he thinks about other fighters and he was asked to give the answers in a single word and his response was hilarious. Chimaev termed Colby Covington as a clown, Jorge Masvidal as a fake gangster, and Kamaru Usman and Shavkat Rakhmonov were good fighters as per Chimaev.

Chimaev then termed the now light heavyweight champion, Alex Pereira as a scared boy, he then continued on his endeavor to term Robert Whittaker as a good boy, Sean Strickland as a funny guy, and in the end her termed Conor McGregor a showman.

Chimaev has rarely shown his funny side to anyone since it seems like he is always thinking about fighting. However, ‘Borz’ is injured now and is away from the octagon after his last fight. Dricus Du Plessis has clinched this opportunity to challenge the Russian.

Dricus Du Plessis challenges Khamzat Chimaev

Dricus Du Plessis is of the opinion that if he wins against Sean Strickland then a fight with Khamzat Chimaev and him may be on the cards. Du Plessis in a recent statement said “I think the UFC is probably going to want to do Khamzat,”

He further added “He’s a big draw and they said if he wins this fight against Usman that he will get a title shot. If that’s the fight, I would gladly as champion take out the boogeyman, it would be a massive pleasure. I think that’s probably what they want to be doing and we’ll will see if it plays out that way. For now, I have one target and that target is Sean Strickland”.
