Khamzat Chimaev appears to have reconsidered his plans to move up in weight class following his loss at UFC 328. Chimaev wrote to Sean Strickland that they will see each other again soon, suggesting interest in a rematch. This represents a potential reversal from earlier statements about moving to light heavyweight. The brief message indicates Chimaev may prefer to stay at middleweight and pursue redemption against Strickland rather than immediately changing divisions.
