Hamzat Chimaev appears to have emotionally changed his mind about moving to light heavyweight following his UFC 328 loss. The middleweight contender now reportedly wants an immediate rematch with new champion Sean Strickland. This marks a reversal from previous statements about weight class changes. The post questions whether pursuing a rematch is justified or if Chimaev should proceed with the division change. Details on any official UFC position regarding a potential rematch were not provided.
