Khamzat Chimaev says increased security during fight week is for Strickland

Khamzat Chimaev addressed questions about potential confrontations during fight week with Sean Strickland. When asked if fans should expect the fighters to clash, Chimaev stated it won't happen because organizers are preventing them from crossing paths and he doesn't know Strickland's location. A journalist mentioned that Dana White said there would be more security than usual this week. Chimaev responded by saying the extra security is for Strickland's safety. The comments suggest UFC is taking precautions to prevent any physical altercations before their scheduled fight.
