Chimaev Says Belt Irrelevant, Money Is Priority

UFC middleweight champion Khamzat Chimaev said the belt isn’t his main goal; he’s in it for the money as he prepares to face Sean Strickland at UFC 328.

UFC 328 saw champion Khamzat Chimaev defend his middleweight title against former champ Sean Strickland, but the Chechen fighter made clear he fights for money, not accolades. “I don’t care about my belt,” Chimaev said, adding that the biggest payoff will be the payday for the fight. wlop.pl
