Chimaev withdraws from UFC’s important fight. Instead of the octagon, he finds himself on a hospital bed

The health condition of the unbeaten fighter shocked UFC president Dana White. On the night of August 17, at UFC 319, mixed martial artist Hamzat Chimaev was scheduled for the most important fight of his career. A victory over South African representative Dricus Du Plessis would have propelled Chimaev to new heights of success. Unfortunately, the fight had to be canceled as Chimaev’s health took a sudden turn, requiring him to be hospitalized. Dana White expressed his concern for Chimaev’s well-being, stating that the fighter’s health always comes first.
