Khamzat Chimaev denies support for Belal Muhammad
Despite Belal Muhammad's support for Khamzat Chimaev, 'The Wolf', on the other hand, doesn't believe in the former welterweight champion (up to 77kg). When the Palestinian lost his belt Speaking to Jack Della Maddalena at UFC 315, 'Checheno' made a point of reminding everyone that he does not support Belal.
"Yes, he called me a Muslim brother and then said he wanted to beat me up, so should I be nice to you? I like real people, not fake people. If you call me brother, you should be my brother. I always support Palestine, but I never support fake people," Khamzat wrote.
