Khamzat Chimaev Posts Strange Photos Of Him Battling Sickness Where He Looks TERRIBLE
UFC fighter Khamzat Chimaev posted and deleted the above photos last night, showing that he was battling some kind of illness following his bout with Kamaru Usman back in October - and he sent the entire MMA world into a whirlwind yet again before revealing that he's currently fine.
Khamzat does this every now and then, like when he posted photos coughing up blood into the sink and briefly retired due to a false cancer diagnosis....
....but luckily, he didn't have cancer back then....and he's seemingly on the up-and-up now!
Who the hell knows what he was going through in those pictures, though - that guy looks ROOOOOUUUUUUGH. Rash all over, swollen face - what could possibly do that to you? People are saying maybe it was THE PLAGUE in the replies....THE PLAGUE?! I didn't even know you could get the plague in 2024. I thought we left that in 1842.
I know Khamzat dealt with some rough long-COVID stuff, allegedly because he tried to train through COVID and fucked up his whole respiratory system, so maybe it's that? Does it make me a lib to suggest that? I really don't know. I just know that this guy is the BOOGEYMAN when he's healthy, and if he can stay healthy - he's a problem for everyone in the middleweight division. Hopefully he has a good year in terms on health and we get to watch him fight 3-4 times.
We discussed these photos of Khamzat, Conor McGregor's announcement regarding his fight with Michael Chandler, UFC 300, and more on the Spinnin Backfist MMA Show this morning, so check that out if you're itchin for more MMA content....
