Khamzat Chimaev squashes beef with Shavkat Rakhmonov following recent social media spat

UFC star Khamzat Chimaev has seemingly squashed any potential beef with fellow fighter Shavkat Rakhmonov.

Over the course of the last few years, there’s been a lot of talk surrounding Khamzat Chimaev and Shavkat Rakhmonov. Both men are undefeated, and both men have looked incredibly dominant during their time in the Ultimate Fighting Championship.

As a result of them both competing at welterweight, many have wondered if they’d ever square off. There’s been talk about it in the past with a few shots thrown here and there, including just last week, when Shavkat had the following to say on a wolf-themed Instagram post.

Rakhmonov: “When someone calls themselves a wolf….. The wolves are among us!”

Now, in a message of his own, Chimaev has shown support for Shavkat’s home nation of Kazakhstan.
