Khamzat Chimaev is confused by the fake glove touch accusations following UFC 279.<\/p>\n

Chimaev, the rising UFC star, fell from grace this past weekend.<\/p>\n

It was at the weigh-ins on Friday, September 9th, that Khamzat came in 7.5 pounds heavy, missing weight.<\/p>\n

UFC 279 was to have seen Nate Diaz<\/a> (22-13 MMA) vs Khamzat Chimaev (12-0 MMA) in the much anticipated main event welterweight bout.<\/p>\n

Instead, ‘Borz’ ended up fighting Kevin Holland (23-8 MMA) in the catchweight co-main event. It took less than three minutes for Holland to submit to Chimaev adding another win to the fighter’s perfect resume.<\/p>\n

However, the fighter was booed by the crowds and Khamzat ultimately flipped them off.<\/p>\n

Fans, obviously were not impressed they had watched Khamzat vs Holland instead of Khamzat vs Diaz, with some insisting that Khamzat faked a glove tough before shooting his shot against Holland.<\/p>\n

One fan tweeted:<\/p>\n

“Khamzat Chimaev doing the fake glove touch is so dirty #ufc279 #ufc #mma”<\/em><\/p>\n

Khamzat was surprised by the glove touch accusation, and speaking at the post-fight presser\u00a0had this to say (h\/t MMAmania<\/a>):<\/p>\n

\u201cWhat? I don\u2019t understand, how we gonna see? I want to take off his head, I\u2019m gonna watch his hands? I was watching his head. I don\u2019t know, always people find some funny things to say. They want to go back, we\u2019ll go back and do it over again.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

Continuing ‘Borz’ said:<\/p>\n

\u201cI said to (Holland) as well, he\u2019s young guy, I\u2019m young guy, maybe we\u2019ll meet again. Otherwise he can come down to Sweden and I\u2019ll help him you know?\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

Holland has not weighed in on the ‘glove touch’ controversy.<\/p>\n

Did you watch Chimaev vs Holland last Saturday night? Do you think Chimaev disrespected Holland by shooting off his offer of a starting glove touch?<\/p>\n
