Khamzat Chimaev Claps Back at "Ilia Topuria Submits Khamzat" Fan Edit

Chimaev mocked a viral edit on Instagram that suggested undisputed lightweight (155-lb) champion Topuria (17-0) submitted him. He commented, “Even in his dreams, someone who's half Khamzat's height and half his weight couldn't choke Khamzat.” Chimaev (15-0) is UFC’s middleweight (185-lb) champion. Khamzat is targeting a jump to light heavyweight (205-lb), while Topuria plans to climb to welterweight (170-lb) next.
