Chimaev Says UFC Belt Is Not Motivator, Money Is

Published May 7, 2026 · Updated May 7, 2026 · Yahoo Sport

UFC middleweight champion Khamzat Chimaev told reporters he is in it for the money, not the belt, before his first title defense against Sean Strickland.

Chimaev, undefeated and a top pound‑for‑pound fighter, said he does not care about being champion and will focus on the payday at UFC 328 in Newark. He added, “I’m still the hunter. I don’t go after the belt; I’m going for the money.” lebandit.lat
