Chimaev has made headlines in many foreign media recently because he exposed his medical photos and said that he was seriously ill.
In October of this year, Chimaev, who currently maintains an unbeaten record, won the former UFC welterweight champion Usman in a middleweight match. According to Dana White's previous statement, everyone thought that Chimaev would be the next challenger for the middleweight title, but later the UFC officially announced the match between Strickland and Du Plessis at UFC297.
If you are still wondering why Chimaev did not get the right to challenge Strickland, then his recently exposed sick photos definitely answer this question very well.
Chimaev said: "I am very ill and my hand is injured, so I cannot return soon. But I want to tell all the fans that I want to see myself fighting more than all of you. I love this I will do my job as always and prove that I am the best, and I will return to the training ground soon."
This post has been deleted from social media, and then Chimaev posted an update Inspiring photos and videos to show optimism about your goal of becoming a UFC champion.
Chimaev had almost retired due to the new crown before, and recently suffered such an injury, but he still hopes that he can return to the Octagon as soon as possible.
