Sean Strickland Claims He’s The Only Man Who Can Beat Khamzat Chimaev

Ex-champion Strickland called himself Chimaev’s toughest matchup, saying, “I’m probably the only one who can beat Chimaev.” Chimaev holds the UFC middleweight belt. But he ranked Brendan “Fluffy” Allen higher as a grinder: “a better wrestler… especially… over five rounds.” Strickland still gives Chimaev the striking edge, predicting he “could win a stand-up decision” if the bout stays upright.
