Fans Slam Khamzat Chimaev for disrespectful impression
On Thursday images of Chimaev wanted to strike and laugh viral on social media.
A member of the Russian Jager team followed in his footsteps by making a disrespectful impression of Du Plessis.
Fans quickly warn Chimaev that this clip will blow up if something goes wrong for him at UFC 319.
“That is the hook with which he will disable you,” a fan predicted. While another added: “Laugh while you can.”
“Khamzat wins better after mocking DDP's style,” said a third fan.
“This will be very funny if DDP sleeps him,” someone else noticed.
“Confidential; now I want Dricus to change his face,” wrote another X user.

Khamzat Chimaev commented on the style of Dricus du Plessis
Chimaev had previously rejected the criticism aimed at Du Plessis and his 'weird' fighting style.
Nevertheless, the 31-year-old predicts that he is running away from UFC 319 with the 185 pound belt.
“Everyone says he has a strange style, very weird,” said Chimaev during a recent media day.
“That is MMA style. I don't think he is a crazy, strange (fighter), but he is doing his job. He is doing well and he is a good hunter. I'm better.”
We will be happy to see him in the cage. We will fight against him, struggle, struggle. I want to know how he can do it. “
“We just earn money, have fun. If he wants to take it personally, it's up to him. For me it's just work. It makes people happy, it makes me happy. As I said, someone makes me happy.”
