Khamzat Chimaev’s gym banned from MMA contests due to threats, disruptions

Stockholm’s Allstars Training Center has been sensationally barred from fielding fighters in local MMA competition in Sweden. Allstars is one of Scandinavia's most well known MMA gyms and is currently home to breakout UFC star Khamzat Chimaev and former title challenger Alexander Gustafsson.

News of the sanction comes via the Swedish MMA Federation (an affiliate of the International MMA Federation). SMMAF acts as a sanctioning body for both amateur and professional MMA in Sweden.
