after the fight, Khamzat aggravated the situation. During an interview with Joe Rogan, he shouted into the microphone: “Fuck all your guys, this is Chechnya, you bastards! I am the most dangerous guy here, I will kill everyone, Allahu Akbar!” No one would notice anything if the duel took place in the summer, in the winter, and in general on any other date. But the tournament took place on September 10 – on the eve of the anniversary of the 2001 terrorist attack. The battle ended a few minutes before the 11th local time. Due to the context, Chimaev’s words were received with hostility by the fans.
Here are some of the comments that fans are posting on social media
“They really let Chimaev say ‘Allahu Akbar’ into the microphone on September 11,” tweeted MVPJoker, an outraged Twitter user.
“Khamzat Chimaev, who says the phrases “I will kill everyone” and “Allahu Akbar” in one sentence is wild, especially on September 11,” issymetedad said.
“Chimaev should be ashamed. He failed not only himself, but all Muslims. Not a very good look at 9/11 coming up,” says Nick.
“Colby Covington, if you truly love America, you will beat Chimaev for 9/11,” said swaveyEZ.
“The words “Allahu Akbar” in the United States on September 11 are crazy. Turn around. Crotch sniffing will not save you,” ExotericvChaos wrote, noting Chimaev.
UFC didn’t even cut it from the YouTube video, swear. Khamzat, who says “I will kill everyone, Allahu Akbar” before September 11, will forever remain one of the most memorable moments,” said purokross.
In just a few days, for many Americans, Khamzat turned from a favorite fighter into a main villain. But I think that here the fans went too far. Let’s be honest, of course Chimaev did not say this phrase on purpose. I’m sure he didn’t even remember that day. 11 September. He always shouts that he will tear everyone, kill everyone, but people need to understand That, this is business. I know for sure, He himself is a very good guy. But, as they say, it’s too late. he became the most hated fighter in the UFC. ALREADY SAID WORDS DO NOT RETURN back. But I’m the only one who knows for sure that this guy knows how to attract attention. His whole performance is something special. Admit that everyone, even those who don’t like him, everyone will be looking forward to his next fights. So, The fight with Colby Covington makes even more sense for Chimaev – now he is interesting not only from a sports point of view. Colby fans will certainly hope that their compatriot will take revenge on Chimaev for his words. Covington is the main patriot of America among UFC fighters, so there is simply no more logical fight for both. Unless, of course, Chimaev makes weight. And as for the reason for Khamzat Chimaev’s failed weigh-in before the UFC 279 tournament.
