Chimaev says increased UFC 328 security is for Strickland's safety

Khamzat Chimaev addressed the increased security measures for fight week ahead of UFC 328. When asked by a journalist if fans might see the fighters confront each other during the week, Chimaev stated it won't happen because they won't allow him to cross paths with Strickland and he doesn't know where his opponent is. When the journalist mentioned Dana White's comment about increased security this week, Chimaev responded by saying the extra security is for Strickland's safety. The exchange suggests UFC officials are taking precautions to prevent any physical altercations before their scheduled bout.
