Khamzat Chimaev reacts to Arman Tsarukyan-Dillon Danis brawl: 'When he's alone, he never talks'

Khamzat Chimaev gives his immediate reaction to the RAF 15 press conference chaos.

At the RAF 14 pre-fight news conference in Las Vegas on Thursday, chaos erupted when Arman Tsarukyan attacked Dillon Danis onstage. Khamzat Chimaev, who was also present, became the focal point of the commotion. Danis wore a shirt mocking Chimaev's appearance. This prompted Tsarukyan to defend his teammate, setting off a chain reaction that led to a large number of people being scattered across the stage.

Once the situation was under control and tempers cooled, Chimaev was asked his immediate thoughts by MMA Junkie reporter. Chimaev remarked, "He talks so much sh*t, bro, and never does anything. I've never seen him win any match. I don't know why they bring this idiot here." He added that it was probably due to the numerous security personnel surrounding him that Tsarukyan felt emboldened to speak. Chimaev concluded that when he's alone, he never talks.
