Not many were sympathetic towards Chimaev, especially since he's aligned with Chechen warlord Ramzan Kadyrov.Since Russia has been forcibly recruiting men into the military, many Twitter users have speculated that Chimaev could be forced to fight in the war. Others even made light of the situation, pointing out that such a scenario would force Chimaev to "kill everybody" as he so often claims..@powerliftingbjj@SpinninBackfist @combate Are they going to try to make him fight in the war?3@SpinninBackfist @combate Are they going to try to make him fight in the war?harry d 🌪@wearealldegen@SpinninBackfist @combate “i kill everybody” yea you’re gonna have to prove it now bro1535@SpinninBackfist @combate “i kill everybody” yea you’re gonna have to prove it now broSeñor Smang@SenorSmang@SpinninBackfist @combate He can smesh anybody though right?

On the flipside, there are those who were curious and wanted more information. And finally, there are Twitter users who are just plain trolling.Chris Rai@cray002@SpinninBackfist @combate Why is anyone flying into Russia at this point?9@SpinninBackfist @combate Why is anyone flying into Russia at this point?Shams Jr@JrShams@cray002 @SpinninBackfist @combate Why do people fly to USA or UK??1@cray002 @SpinninBackfist @combate Why do people fly to USA or UK??Connor@connorcooked@SpinninBackfist @combate Can we get some more information?

Know your place, Kadyrov’s puppy."Kadyrov has been in power since his rise in 2007. He has been repeatedly accused of perpetrating human rights abuses, including disappearances, extrajudicial killings, and state-sponsored eradication of LGBTQ+ members.See Khamzat Chimaev's post below: View this post on Instagram Instagram PostChimaev was seen hanging out with the Chechen dictator on multiple occasions. He also participated in training sessions with Kadyrov's teenage sons and frequented the Akhmat MMA fight club – a state-sponsored combat sports facility that houses Chechnya’s top fighters.
