Khamzat Chimaev revealed he spent between six hundred and seven hundred thousand dollars to build a wrestling gym for children in his home village in Chechnya. In an interview on the "Beyond The Win" channel, Chimaev explained that he fights not only for himself but to help others, stating that money provides opportunities to assist people in need. He addressed criticism about his inactivity, saying he earns millions from the UFC and even more outside the octagon through business opportunities and sponsorships. Chimaev emphasized that his name recognition allows him to engage in lucrative ventures wherever he travels. He also mentioned helping with medical expenses and other needs when people from his village call for assistance.
