"Classic Khamzat response" - Fans react as Khamzat Chimaev gives hilarious answers to what he does for a living

MMA fans were startled by Khamzat Chimaev's response to a question about his profession. Chimaev was in a car with one of his friends when he provided an unfiltered reply to the question asked.

Chimaev's last fight at UFC 308 showcased why he's considered one of the scariest UFC fighters. His rival, Robert Whittaker, admitted he would avoid wrestling Chimaev as far as possible. Still, 'Borz' turned the fight into a wrestling contest by taking Whittaker shortly after the beginning.

Lots of UFC fighters have finished fights with neck cranks to date. However, Chimaev cranked Whittaker's chin so hard that three of his lower incisors got pushed back from the natural alignment of his teeth.

Chimaev maintained his usual unfiltered nature while answering the question about his profession. A post on X from @ChampRDS showcased his savage, with the Chechen UFC middleweight saying:

Khamzat Chimaev calls Bo Nickal too young to defeat him

UFC middleweight Bo Nickal is one of the brightest names in the division with an undefeated overall record of 6-0. He also expressed a wish to lock horns with Khamzat Chimaev at UFC 308, but Dana White and co. didn't grant him the opportunity.

In a recent interview with Nina-Marie Daniele, Chimaev presented his take on why the UFC authorities refrained from matching him with Nickal. 'Borz' opined that the Pennsylvania native was too young to challenge him. He was also confident about getting the better of Nickal in the first round.

"Why is it they didn't pick him [Nickal]? I don't know, because they think the guy is too early for him, too young. I don't know how old he is, but in MMA, it doesn't mean that your age [determines if] you're prepared to fight. The guy is too young for the sport. He has to grow up, and if we fight now, I'm gonna smash that guy easily in the first round. Maybe later, when I'm older, he’ll give me a tougher fight. But I’m for sure gonna win that time as well."
