Khamzat Chimaev is one of the biggest and fastest-rising prospects in the entire history of MMA. ‘The Wolf’ was being pushed by the fans to fight for the title right after his fourth fight in the UFC, against Li Jingliang. Moreover, his ability to switch divisions between middleweight and welterweight and being dominant in both of them, made fans believe that he can also become a two-division champion.
Meanwhile, it’s difficult to question his status as a dominant fighter since, apart from the Gilbert Burns fight, the Swede has looked untouchable. In his recent fight against Kevin Holland, ‘The Wolf’ absorbed no strikes at all. Furthermore, he ran through the trailblazer, as if he were nothing.

However, with all that being said, Chimaev couldn’t maintain his undefeated record. Moreover, it wasn’t an octagon where he lost manhandled but instead in his gym. Here’s what happened:
Khamzat Chimaev is no longer undefeated
Recently, a video circled around the internet where the Swede, despite his high fight IQ, fell for the most basic prank. In the clip, a woman pushed the ‘Borz’. Meanwhile, another person stood behind in all-fours so that after being pushed, Chimaev could stumble upon him and fall down.
