Russian fighter Nikita Kulshin reveals Chimaev's ultra-cautious sparring habits at Kill Cliff

Russian lightweight prospect Nikita Kulshin, who trains alongside Michael Chandler at Kill Cliff gym, says Chandler avoids full sparring and works exclusively on touch drills, insisting on having the mat to himself during sessions. Kulshin described Chandler as highly guarded and psychologically complex in the gym, noting the stark contrast with the all-out aggression Chandler displays inside the cage.
