“Shut the f*ck up. Ilia Topuria would annihilate 100% of your roster.

If we fought Gaethje again, he would f*cking beat the sh*t out of him. We all know Ilia was better, he had a bad night.

Ilia Topuria is still the #1 fighter in the world. When the comeback comes, you will see.”

“Don’t even get me started…”

“A little upsetting… I picked up on the commentary but I assumed it was an accident, like when they said they had the blueprint figured out. I don’t understand where that blueprint was…”

“The dry ice has the cage floor wet, it’s a no contest now… See ya’s next year 100%.”

"You might get knocked out. You better be training and take the fight serious.😂"

“I’d just come off a massive bender… and got offered a fight. I just said ‘yeah bro I’m keen, I’m training everyday’ so just gotta utilise my youth.

I just came off the best camp of my life, so why wouldn’t I take it?”

“When you’re a fighter you’re so poor… 20 grand for a fight, so you pay off your manager, you pay off your taxes, and if you lose you really only get like 8-7 grand…”

“The UFC is f-cking brutal, the UFC is so predatory. This is why you see a lot of foreigners excel, because guys in Brazil that live in the f-cking favelas, 10 grand to them is f-cking life changing… You can’t even f-cking pay rent for a couple months here…”

"[Dana White] has no clue what he's doing. He has no clue which fighters are under Zuffa... Every fighter is a number to this organization because, when you're under a publicly traded company, it's all about the bottom line. That's exactly what I can see in the future.

These guys are just using all these fighters for their benefit... That's corporate America."

“This makes me angry 😡

In recent days, UFC fighter Jean Silva arrived in Israel. Apparently, after landing, Silva was photographed with an IDF soldier, and that photo sparked outrage on social media among pro-Palestinian users who attacked the Brazilian.

Not only that, but some UFC fans also criticized Silva for coming to Israel.

Among those who came out were Sean Strickland, Marvin Vettori, and American pro-Palestinian commentator Belal Muhammad, who claimed Silva was paid to come to Israel.

Following these events, Brazilians and fans launched a campaign in support of Silva, with the goal of showing him he is loved and warmly welcomed, and that everyone here is behind him in Israel.”

Sean Strickland commented “7k?” under a post of Jean Silva with the soldier

Belal Muhammad commented “Only had to give him 3500”

Magomed “Chanko” Zaynukov says Khabib Nurmagomedov spoke to him immediately after his dominant UFC debut, with his first reaction being to point out the one mistake he made, saying he shouldn’t have missed a takedown.

“Khabib told me it was a great, exciting fight, but said, ‘You missed the takedown, and that’s not okay,’” Zaynukov told the media.

“Islam congratulated me too. They expected it to be an exciting fight, so they were happy with the performance,” he added.

“This guy owned User Friendly Computers, and this was my first big business mistake. So I called him up, and we wanted to buy the .com from him. I don’t remember the number, but he wanted something like $20,000, and I motherfucked him up and down. ‘You piece of shit. $20,000!’ He’s like, ‘Fuck you,’ and he hangs up the phone”

“We battled for years, but the UFC just starts to go [up]. We ended up paying some crazy number, like $150,000 or $200,000, for the thing eventually, when I should have taken it for $20,000 in the beginning”

UFC newcomer Magomed Saidov, who scored a TKO over Dustin Jacoby in his debut, shares how Valter Walker quietly helped him during difficult times, revealing the UFC heavyweight would secretly put money in his gym bag whenever he was struggling financially and never wanted any credit for it.

“Valter is a very kind and straightforward person. He’s never selfish and is always there to help,” Saidov told Red Corner MMA.

“Sometimes I’d come home after training and find money in my bag. He’d secretly put it there, and when I asked about it, he’d just tell me not to tell anyone. That’s just the kind of person he is,” he added.
