Sean Strickland visits Newport Beach hoping to confront Khamzat Chimaev's team

Sean Strickland spent a day in Newport Beach, California, where Khamzat Chimaev is currently training, attempting to confront Chimaev after the latter allegedly said he would try to kill Strickland on the street. Strickland repeatedly tagged his location on social media stories throughout the day, noting he was only ten minutes from Chimaev's gym. Strickland stated that fighters who train with Chimaev follow him on social media and would have seen his location tags. He called himself the last guy in America that Chimaev should mess with, expressing disappointment that no confrontation occurred.
