Strickland has wrestling to challenge Chimaev

    Eric Nicksick told MMA Junkie that Sean Strickland possesses the wrestling tools to present a challenge to middleweight champion Khamzat Chimaev.

    Strickland is slated to headline UFC Fight Night 267 against Anthony Hernandez on Feb. 21 in Houston as he pushes for a title opportunity.

    The coach reportedly believes Strickland's grappling is underrated and could be effective against Chimaev's style.

    Nicksick says earlier disagreements with Strickland have been resolved and he will join the fighter in his corner for the Hernandez bout, according to reports.

    Additional context and details are available in the original report.
