If Hamzat Chimaev defeats Sean Strickland at UFC 328, he would achieve a remarkable 10-fight UFC winning streak that includes victories over four UFC champions. The analysis highlights Chimaev's unprecedented start in the UFC, including three wins in 66 days and two victories in just 10 days, both modern-era records. His potential 10-fight streak would feature wins over champions at their peak, including Robert Whittaker, Kevin Holland, and Li Jingliang, plus a slightly past-prime Kamaru Usman. The post emphasizes not just who Chimaev has beaten, but the dominant manner of his victories, particularly his aggressive wrestling style. However, the author expresses some concern about Chimaev potentially struggling with takedowns against Strickland.
