Ilia Topuria takes shots at Justin Gaethje and calls him a “nobody” 😬 “He has no say here. This is between the UFC and me. Whatever we decide, that's what Justin will do… If I fight Paddy, Justin, being the champion, would have to be the co-main.” (via @KOlmeneroMMA)

If I didn't know who Ciryl Gane was and you told me there's a guy who: -Made Alex Pereira look like an amateur -Fought Francis Ngannou for the heavyweight title. -Dominated Derrick Lewis. -Outclassed Alexander Volkov. -Beat Tai Tuivasa -Went toe-to-toe with Jon Jones. -Ended Tom Aspinall's Career for good -Has some of the fastest and cleanest striking ever seen at heavyweight. -Moves like a middleweight despite being a heavyweight. I would've asked you if you're describing a heavyweight or some kind of UFC cheat code. 😭 Yet somehow, people still overlook just how ridiculously talented this man is. At some point, you have to stop focusing on the criticism and appreciate the level of skill you're witnessing.

🚨 Khamzat Chimaev wants to sit out and wait for the winner of Sean Strickland vs Nassourdine Imavov "I should fight the winner [of Strickland vs Imavov] because I'm the #1 contender. I didn't lose that match. I'm the real champion." (via @MMAJunkie)

I just realised I haven’t said “chama” in months

🚨 Ilia Topuria says he plans to return in APRIL 2027, but his next fight could also be his LAST! 😳 The former UFC champion has hinted at a possible retirement, revealing that he could walk away from MMA after just one more fight. With Dana White recently confirming that the UFC is working on his comeback, Topuria's latest comments raise even more questions about his future. Via: (@abc)
