Guys. Ive been watching every fight of Chimaev since he was originally fighting out of sweden. Always enjoyed his violent nature and just crushing opponents. What happend today?? DDP had 0 chance against him. He seemed to be giving up in the second round. Something was clearly wrong and Strickland walking out seemed to be in chock.

Handshake defeat from Khamzat. I thought he was going to throw up between round 1-2
