If Khamzat Chimaev defeats Sean Strickland at UFC 328, he would complete a historic 10-fight winning streak in the UFC that includes victories over four former champions. The streak began with Chimaev setting records by winning three fights in 66 days, including two in just 10 days. His run includes dominant performances against champions Whittaker, Holland, and Li Jingliang, plus Usman. The post emphasizes not just who Chimaev has beaten, but how he has done it—particularly his 2-minute wrestling destruction of Kevin Holland and his aggressive grappling style throughout the cage. However, the author expresses late concerns about Chimaev potentially forcing takedowns unsuccessfully against Strickland, which could shift psychological momentum.
