Chael comes out swinging hard against Strickland, du Plessis, Whittaker (I'm sure others too) here:
"It did come out and got clarified, when Dana said that if Chimaev picks 185 and commits to that, he will get a top fight. And if he wins this one fight I will put him in for the belt.
The other MW's either never heard of it or they were so deathly scared of Chimaev they didn't go for it."
"It was a blanket policy, the opponent didn't matter, you could walk a mop out there if you could get it licensed. There was not even a rumor of an opponent when Dana made this comment.
Every MW who claims they'd like to be champion should have fought tooth and nail to be the one opposite to Chimaev, and they all could have got it. Anyone of them."
"To pull Costa out and put him against Chimaev wasn't just to preserve that originally planned match-up, it's 'cause none of the other cowards did it. That's the truth. Costa and Cannonier don't
get put on this list of cowards that all the rest of the top MW's do."
"An opportunity that has already been established. There will be a number one contender's match. That was already established by Dana and you all heard it. Don't act like you didn't hear it.
You all did and you all knew what was at stake, and none of you were willing to do it. What middleweight must Chimaev beat, if he has already backed you down?"
"This whole idea of "B-b-but it's a middleweight versus a welterweight", you're the same weight! This is a new age phenomenon by the new fake tough guys that are known as "ultimate fighters""
