Chimaev's potential 10-fight win streak would include four UFC champions

Analysis of Khamzat Chimaev's extraordinary UFC career trajectory, which began with three wins in 66 days and two victories in 10 days. If he defeats Strickland, his 10-fight streak would include four former UFC champions, three of whom he fought at their peak. The piece highlights several defining performances, particularly against Whittaker, Holland, and Li Jingliang. The submission of Holland is noted as underappreciated, featuring a first-second takedown followed by relentless grappling. However, the author expresses concern heading into the Strickland fight, worrying that Chimaev might struggle with takedown entries and exhaust himself on unsuccessful attempts.
