But itโ€™s not like Chimaev never had a clean-shaven look. During his debut years, when he started playing professional MMA, he was seen with no-beard during the match against Gard Olve Sagen at International Ring Fight Arena 14.ย 

Additionally, Khamzat also uploaded a throwback picture of his shaved look from 2013, when he was a young guy. His supporters took this picture as a reference and concluded that the viral picture was indeed photoshopped.
