Khamzat Chimaev appeared to reference Conor McGregor's social media activity when addressing the fans' reaction to his win over Kevin Holland.
Chimaev needed just three minutes to choke out Holland at UFC 279 on Saturday night in a fight which only came about when the Swede failed to make weight on Friday. Chimaev had been due to take on Nate Diaz but weighed in 7.5lb heavy to spark an almighty scramble to rearrange the card.
Diaz instead took on Tony Ferguson and choked out his fellow veteran in the fourth round of the main event while Daniel Rodriguez outpointed Li Jingliang in the third short-notice fight. Chimaev has shown no remorse for failing to make weight, insisting he was told to stop cutting by a doctor.
