The UFC has decided not to hold a face-off between Khamzat Chimaev and Sean Strickland at their pre-fight press conference due to concerns about potential disorder. The promotion will instead enhance security measures for the event to prevent any incidents. This decision reflects the UFC's assessment of the rivalry and potential volatility between the two fighters. Face-offs are typically a standard part of UFC promotion, making this cancellation notable. The heightened security precautions suggest the organization is taking the threat of confrontation seriously given the animosity between Chimaev and Strickland.
