Following his loss at UFC 328, Khamzat Chimaev appears to have emotionally changed his mind about moving up to light heavyweight and now wants a rematch with Sean Strickland. The post questions whether pursuing a rematch is justified or if Chimaev should proceed with his plans to move up in weight. Prior to the fight, there had been discussions about Chimaev potentially moving to the 205-pound division. The immediate aftermath of the controversial split decision loss appears to have influenced Chimaev's thinking about his next move. Details about whether the UFC would grant such a rematch remain unclear.
