Analysis: Strickland's upset win reveals Chimaev's cardio limitations

Sean Strickland's victory over Khamzat Chimaev at UFC 328 marks his second major upset in recent years after defeating Israel Adesanya. The analyst notes Strickland was heavily underestimated and delivered his standard performance, while Chimaev showed no ultimate answers to Strickland's skillset. Chimaev's cardio issues became apparent after the first round, similar to his fight against Kamaru Usman. The bout scored 3-2 for Strickland with split decision controversy. Chimaev is now planning to move up to light heavyweight, potentially facing Paulo Costa, while Strickland may defend against Nassourdine Imavov. The analyst questions why both fighters abandoned their pre-fight animosity to shake hands before the bout.
