Khamzat Chimaev stated he would never fight Khalil Rountree if he moves to light heavyweight because he considers Rountree his brother. Chimaev explained that he wants to be genuine and authentic in his approach, refusing to call someone a brother one day and fight them the next. He emphasized that this personal code matters to him more than typical professional considerations. The post also includes a poll asking readers if they would fight a teammate or training partner.
