Kevin Holland has no idea why Khamzat Chimaev thinks he would want to train with him following the result of their last-minute catchweight fight at UFC 279.
Holland accepted the bout on short notice after Khamzat was pulled from his welterweight headliner with Nate Diaz after his historic UFC 279 weight miss. ‘Borz’ won the matchup via submission, submitting ‘Trailblazer’ with a D’Arce choke just two minutes into the first round.
Any bad blood they had before the fight was squashed in the Octagon but Holland wants to make it clear that he has no intention of forming any friendship with Khamzat after shooting down the latter’s post-fight training invite during a recent appearance on The MMA Hour (h/t MMA News).
