Dana White revealed that Khamzat Chimaev approached him after the fight and announced his intention to move up to light heavyweight. Chimaev stated he no longer wants to compete in his current weight class. This decision comes following his loss to Sean Strickland at UFC 328. White shared this information publicly after their conversation. The move would represent a significant jump in weight class for Chimaev, who has competed at both welterweight and middleweight.
