Khamzat Chimaev recently trolled Alex Pereira by sharing photos of Pereira knocked out at UFC 287, where he lost to Israel Adesanya. Chimaev posted the images on social media with the captions “Sama wake up” and simply “Sama,” mocking Pereira.
Chimaev continues to target not only fighters in his weight class but also stars from across the MMA world. Following Dricus Du Plessis’ victory over Sean Strickland at UFC 312, Chimaev took to social media to criticize Du Plessis and Strickland, saying, “Instead of fighting in the cage, you keep trash-talking each other.”
