Khamzat Chimaev “almost died” during his weight cut for Sean Strickland, according to TJ Dillashaw 😳
“He was almost dying before he got on the scale. Like, I’m saying, almost died. Scary stories. I’ve never heard of anything like this before.”
“People need to understand what he pushed through to fight.”
“To hear the stories of what was happening to him, like puking up green bile and all the crazy sh*t, he shouldn’t have made it to the fight.”
“To see how he performed still, round 4 and 5, he still had the better cardio than Strickland. Strickland’s supposed to be a cardio guy.”
“The guy has half a thyroid. Do some research on what that does to your metabolism.”
