“Bro Is as Fake as Colby” – Khamzat Chimaev’s “Confusing” Private Messages to Jiri Prochazka Has UFC Fans in a Tailspin

UFC welterweight star Khamzat Chimaev has been on the hunt for his next opponent, calling out several fighters across various weight divisions. His recent remarks about light heavyweight contender Jiri Prochazka have stirred up some controversy and prompted a response from Prochazka.

Chimaev claimed to have defeated Prochazka in a sparring session, which prompted the light heavyweight to respond by saying he would show his true power in the cage and not take it lightly. Chimaev replied to Prochazka in his typical style.

Khamzat Chimaev issues a challenge!

Khamzat Chimaev recently posted a screenshot to his Instagram story. In the screenshot, he can be seen replying to Prochazka’s story and says – “See you soon boy. Respect. Lets fight in Sweden. June or July”.

Many fans have weighed in on the situation. Some are finding it confusing that Chimaev is calling out fighters from different weight divisions. Some have even suggested that Chimaev is calling out fighters he knows won’t accept the fight, to make it appear as though they are ducking him. Here are some of the fan reactions –

One fan said – “He is spamming “call outs” so much I stopped giving a sh*t”

One said – “Jiri would fight Jamahall hill for the title, wtf is Khamzat smokin?”

Another said – “Yo I’m a Khamzat fan but this is getting too confusing. He wants to fight Costa, Whittaker, Jiri, Colby, and Peirera?”

Another said – “lol it’s so funny, he went to a razor-close decision with Gilbert who was a former LW. and he thinks he can challenge 205ers? Let the man get pummeled”

One said – “Does he call out people he knows won’t accept, Jiri is fighting for the title next, so he can say people duck him?”

Another commented – “Once again Khamzat going after people who have nothing to do with him. Weight divisions that make no sense to him. Fights that make no sense. His head coach and Dana already stated he is fighting at 180. He goes on and on about guys like Alex or Rob docking him…lol okay.”

One said – “Bro is as fake as Colby 😂”

Another one said – “Khamzat “only calls out strikers” Chimaev”

Jiri Prochazka’s injury and return

It is worth noting that Prochazka has been out of action due to an injury to his right shoulder, which caused him to vacate his light heavyweight title. He has previously stated that he plans to return to action in July or August.

It remains to be seen if Chimaev‘s callout for a fight with Prochazka will be accepted, or if the light heavyweight will continue to focus on his title aspirations in his own weight class.
