While discussing the Chechen-born Swede's tenacity and determination, Shammas said: "I saw Khamzat, he got into an altercation with two guys from the group. He misjudged, he thought it was grappling but they kicked him and he didn't like it so it almost ended up in a fight. But he listened and I asked him who he was and he presented himself, he says, 'I'm a wrestler.' I said, 'Have you done MMA?'" Shammas added: "And he said he wants to become an MMA fighter and he was ready to sacrifice everything...He just stayed here. He said,'Okay, I'm not going back.' I said, 'If you want to become a fighter then you're going to stay here.' He said, 'I'm gonna stay here.' And he didn't go home for two years. He stayed in the room in the gym, trained every day like a madman."

View this post on Instagram Instagram Post Sean Strickland gives his take on upcoming Khamzat Chimaev vs Nate Diaz fight Sean Strickland believes that fellow UFC contender Khamzat Chimaev will not even require any training to defeat Nate Diaz. 'Tarzan' believes that the Stockton native doesn't really pose any threat to 'Borz'. Giving his take on the upcoming fight, Strickland said: "I don't know, man... Do you have to get ready for Nate Diaz? The UFC just said, 'Hey [Khamzat Chimaev], we love you. Come f***ing beat up this old man.' I don't really think Khamzat needs to get ready for him. He's probably just gonna roll in, not even train, come off the couch, and just f***ing destroy him."
