Khamzat Chimaev appears to be bouncing back from the serious illness that forced him to pull out of his headlining fight against Robert Whittaker at the recent UFC On ABC 6 event in Saudi Arabia.
The 30-year-old Chimaev was recently photographed training up in the mountains above Lake Kezenoy-am in Russia, and also issued a brief statement that suggests he’s now getting ready to compete again.
“Hard times create strong men,” Chimaev wrote alongside a training photo. “I’ve never had it easy or waited for it to be easier. Will soon show you all again who is the King here.”
If you need further proof then look no further then this new video of the 13-0 star beating up a Russian social media influencer Mikhail Litvin, who has over 10 million followers on platforms like Instagram and YouTube.
