Translation from Article:
Khamzat has decided to represent United Arab Emirates from now on.

He says, I've been spending a lot of time there, and my whole trainingcamp for Costa was in UAE (Abu Dhabi)

I can't wait to hear senpai Sean Strickland's opinion on this.

 

[Reign009]

Ahh yes... He happens to be representing the country that this particular fight is in.

So much for loyalty. What about his coaches back "home"?

 

[amok attitude]

Thats gonna be a good one

 

[Conan the K-9]

Well, Sweden does not want him, chenchen leader is dying, why not choose the oil money?

 

[azerty]

wonder how much he got from UAE?

 

[Conan the K-9]

His BJJ coach went with him.

Not really suprising tbh, I used to cringe reading people write chechen viking or the other bs they used to write.
Seeing as many fighters from the caucasus already fight for Bahrain, not really a suprise.

 

[ThaiSexPills]

All these immigrants are so quick to cut a country off that gave them everything. Ungrateful.

So the head coach is gone?

 

[octagonation]

This is as unofficial as it comes..

Is just tabloids quoting each other without verifying anything with the involved individuals happens all the time.. We need to hear this in the octagon, his coaches, managers or from himself

Chimaev means Chechen Viking.
Chimaev isn't his real name

 

[Conan the K-9]

At least for this camp, but maybe not completely. He has officially moved to UAE and allstars is in Sweden.

It's all good to me. I'm just here for a few laughs.


The one guy that got it right though:

First fleaing Chechnya
Using Sweden for a good life
Then being Chechnya's dictator's puppet
Now being UAE's puppet, after a few months...

Acts like a turncoat all the time I see

Next he will buy a farm in Texas and become neighbours with bryce Mitchell and Johnny hendricks no treespassing will be tolerated on the Chimaev estate..

I doubt there is any truth in this but if true it would be awesome for UAE they will have their first UFC champ and alot more fight cards perhaps an increase to 3-4 cards a year
