Demetrious
\nJohnson<\/a> believes the UFC 328<\/a>
\nheadliner will be a one-sided affair. <\/p>\n

Khamzat
\nChimaev<\/a> puts his middleweight title on the line for the first
\ntime against Sean
\nStrickland<\/a> in the main event at UFC 328 on May 9 at the
\nPrudential Center in Newark, New Jersey. While Chimaev is a massive
\nfavorite going into the fight, many believe Strickland\u2019s wrestling
\ndefense might be the ultimate answer to \u201cBorz.\u201d <\/p>\n

However, Johnson believes Chimaev will prove the oddsmakers right
\nwith a dominant performance. Currently helping Chimaev in camp,
\nJohnson is impressed with the middleweight champion\u2019s discipline
\nand work ethic. \u201cMight Mouse\u201d predicts that Chimaev will finish
\nStrickland in the fourth round.<\/p>\n

‘Absolute Domination’<\/h2>\n

\u201cI think it\u2019s gonna be absolute domination,\u201d Johnson said on the
\n“Jaxxon Podcast.\u201d<\/a> \u201cKhamzat\u2019s got a great team
\naround him. He\u2019s doing the drilling, he\u2019s doing the sparring, he\u2019s
\nnot skipping anything. He\u2019s making sure he leaves no stone
\nunturned. So for me, I have Khamzat
\nChimaev<\/a>. I think he probably finishes [Strickland] in the
\nfourth round.\u201d <\/p>\n

Chimaev (15-0) has almost run through every
\nUFC<\/a> opponent \u2014 with the exception of Gilbert
\nBurns<\/a> and Kamaru
\nUsman<\/a>. The undefeated Chechen-born dominantly dethroned
\nDricus
\nDu Plessis<\/a> at UFC 319 last year to win the title. Meanwhile,
\nStrickland (30-7) is 5-2 in his last seven outings, with both the
\nlosses coming in title fights against Du Plessis. Strickland earned
\nhis title shot with an upset win over Anthony
\nHernandez<\/a>, who is also known for his chain wrestling. <\/p>\n
