News Khamzat Chimaev has made over $230,000 in less than 10 minutes of Octagon Time

[Buff]

And yet he still lives at the gym

And looks like a bumpkin.

 

[M.A.G.A.]

Considering his hype and the amount of fights he's taken in a short period of time, he's terribly underpaid

He doesn't seem to care too much about money right now so more power to him, no doubt Dana loves a fighter that accepts what he's offered

 

[Arkham's Notorious Geyser]

And yet he still lives at the gym

Sign of a Fucking Killer(I'm sure he goes out and lives his life too from time to time, his IG seems to indicate that)

He's posting about his Finances because he worked for it, and got shit done, unlike a certain Fighter doing something similar to gain sympathy and support while sporting a 50/50 record...But I'm not gonna say no names though.

 

[Goodfella86]

I'm jealous, but I'm still doing better than Jessica Rose Clark.

 

[Dorkman]

Good on him for earning at least a quarter of a million(could be more if Danas dishing him those back stage cheques) in his first 3 months in the company while taking minimal damage.

 

[Old Man]

Good thing he didn't spend any time or money on preparing for these fights.

 

[Ronin13]

Good for him. Hopefully if he becomes a champion, he doesn’t lose his aggressiveness like woodley did.

 

[usernamee]

and not long ago he was dirt poor living in Chechnya

came to Sweden and began training MMA

now look at him

amazing

 

[Peli]

12/12 is a robbery for any ufc fighter

 

[The Chosen]

I’m sure he has and will soon make much more from sponsorships

 

[omawho402]

Rare to find a fighter in the UFC with a perfect record willing to put it on the line so often. Dude has genuine belief in himself.

I like it *in Nick Diaz voice*

 

[Domitian]

Yeah now sounds like the time to try to renegotiate from making 12/12.

 

[Xoleth]

Who keeps making those goofy "Chad" drawings? This is the second one I've seen in just 2 minutes (the other thread had a Trump related one).

 

[funkjunky]

He deserves 10x that amount.

I can buy a can opener in the shop for 2 dollars

 

[Prime Schaub]

Man his new contract will be really good. Good for him, if you fight often you should get rewarded with a nice contract.

 

[MarloStanfield]

Maybe he can get some surgery on that train wreck of a lip

 

[DivineMind]

Lol Reebok sponsor so pathetic

 

[shoorik1987]

Probably has a 2nd job just so he can put food on the table

He saves money on living expenses by living in the gym.

 

[daniel san]

How many fights on his contract? Good for him that he got to join the UFC as he obviously is of UFC caliber, but now it must suck getting 12/12 when he for sure attracts more viewers than many others. I'm guessing that Dana keeps him happy, not only with fights but also some locker room bonuses. Good for him, he has deserved it. I hope he just chills a bit with the trash talk a bit.

He's making good money. When he lived in sweden he lived in their gym. Not sure if he even had a job or if he was on welfare, but probably like $1500 a month.
No wonder he's eager to take fights when he can make $100k in just a fight.
