Kevin Holland questions Khamzat Chimaev’s handling of COVID-19: ‘Don’t claim to have that heart if you ain’t got it’

Kevin Holland has called out pretty much every name fighter in the vicinity of the 185-pound division and Khamzat Chimaev is no exception.

Two of 2020’s biggest breakout stars, it’s only natural that they would end up in matchup conversations, and Chimaev was just one topic of conversation during Holland’s recent appearance on The Joe Rogan Experience.

Chimaev has struggled recently with COVID-19 symptoms, with the virus costing him a trio of scheduled meetings with top welterweight contender Leon Edwards. According to Chimaev’s manager, the undefeated fighter “thought he was going to die” during a recent trip to the hospital.
