HOLY SHIT!!!! UFC 327 is completely empty UFC leaned some hard into right wing grifting & rewarding WWE antics over actual skill & tonight is the payoff Nobody even knows this event is happening & the arena is completely empty bc they couldn't sell tickets.

I found out the real story behind Islam/Prates not happening. He’s not 100% healthy but was down to fight Prates at UFC 336 The UFC & Islam had a contract dispute so Islam said fine I’ll heal up & wait for the winner of Prates vs Morales instead
🚨 Islam Makhachev explains why he turned down the Carlos Prates fight in January "They offered me a fight with Prates, who recently lost to [Ian Garry], someone I beat. If I beat him, Morales would already be next in line, who's not fighting and waiting for [a title shot]. Just let them fight and we will figure out who's the real challenger." (via pound4padel/IG)

Jon Anik legit pushes UFC propaganda, & is a glorified gambling ad soundboard & he has the audacity to call out MMA Junkie ā€œWe gotta be better folksā€ @Jon_Anik why don’t you do your research next time instead of posting a video acting like a big shot & being DEAD WRONG
Misleading headline again from MMAjunkie. Tactic is employed a lot. Aljo is the last guy anyone should be criticizing when it comes to ā€˜protecting’ a ranking. But it really doesn’t sound like Aaron Pico was being critical, per se, as much as he was making a broader point. Full #UFC333 recap today on @anikflorianpod!

HOW HARD DOES GANE PUNCH? PEREIRA SAID HE WOULD OF WON THE FIGHT BC GANE HAD GASSED OUT
Alex Pereira believes the result of his fight against Ciryl Gane would've been different if Herb Dean wasn't the referee: "[Gane] wore himself out badly there and couldn't knock me out. They stopped the fight and I was still standing. I wasn't on the ground. He was like 'I can't believe it. Thank God it's over.' You could see how heavily he was breathing." (via @connect_cast)

Since Dana White & UFC fans are so concerned about average fights per year, let's STRIP Volkanovski while we're at it Since 2021, Volkanovski has fought just ONCE a year on 3 SEPARATE occasions & averaged only 1.67 fights per year Islam Makhachev has fought MORE TIMES in that same span, has 4 MORE WINS & averages 1.83 fights per year I'm tired of Volkanovski being so inactive & holding up the entire featherweight division by fighting Diego Lopes TWICE IN A ROW despite him never earning a title shot STRIP HIM IMMEDIATELY!!!!!

HOLY SHIT!!!! COULD YOU IMAGINE IF JUSTIN GAETHJE WAS MUSLIM? Since 2021: Islam Makhachev - 11 fights (1.83 per year) Justin Gaethje - 8 fights (1.33 per year) Islam has fought damn near 40% MORE frequently than Gaethje over the last 6 years & fought far better opposition all while becoming double champ Gaethje has fought just ONCE in 4 of those 6 years & is STILL undecided on whether he even wants to fight again Yet somehow ISLAM is the one who's a DISASTER for his division & needs to be STRIPPED of his belt??? Where's the fucking outrage over Gaethje holding up the LW division??? The blatant double standards. These LOW IQ racist MMA fans are impossible to reason with bc they don't have critical thinking skills

Justin Gaethje needs to be stripped of his UFC LW title. He's fought just ONCE in 4 of the last 6 years The only time he'll fight more than once is when he's getting undeserved title shots for political reasons He fought damn near 6 months ago & is STILL deciding whether or not he even wants to fight again STRIP HIM OF THE BELT. HE'S A DISASTER FOR THE DIVISION!!! Oh wait, he's a white American Christian man who loves Trump, so nobody cares that he's squatting on the title while the division clogs up with contenders

HOLY SHIT!!! ARIEL HELWANI TRULY EXPOSED HIMSELF AS AN ISLAM HATER!!! PRATES/MORALES WINNER CAN’T ā€œTURN AROUNDā€ & FIGHT ISLAM IN SUMMER BC ITS A ā€œQUICK TURN AROUNDā€ YET ISLAM WENT A HARD 5 ROUNDS WITH THE GUY THAT SCHOOLED PRATES & THEY WANT HIM BACK IN CAMP 8 WEEKS LATER

I’m DISGUSTED with the lack of activity in the WW division!!!! Unfortunately Prates ducked Morales all of 2026 so we don’t have a true #1 contender for UFC 336 They have a combined 1 fight in the last year stalling out the division. Talk about a disgrace

The Islam Makhachev situation truly highlights how disgustingly bigoted & hateful the MMA fanbase really is We get it, you hate Muslim Dagestani champions & only want white/American/UK Christian champions Sean Strickland is openly refusing to fight contenders & hasn’t fought in 6 months Justin Gaethje hasn’t fought since June, has no plans to fight until AT LEAST February & still hasn’t decided whether he’s retiring or not Both the lightweight & middleweight divisions have legitimate, clear-cut #1 contenders, yet we see ZERO outrage or accusations of ducking????? Yet Islam is somehow ā€œduckingā€ the guy who got schooled by Garry on short notice??? Prates & Morales have fought a COMBINED ONE TIME in the last year I want to see EVERY champion be more active, including Islam, but the blatant double standard from the racist MMA fanbase is absolutely infuriating The selective outrage is fucking ridiculous
🚨 Islam Makhachev explains why he turned down the Carlos Prates fight in January "They offered me a fight with Prates, who recently lost to [Ian Garry], someone I beat.

I can’t believe how hard people are glazing Alexander Volkanovski for beating a boring decision merchant Volk is an all time GOAT bc he beat Movsar? • Decision merchant • No IG followers • 0 personality • Sells no PPVs • Gets no views Tell Volk to beat somebody with some UFC finishes before he gets himself in the all time GOAT discussion. Basically a can crusher at this point

Honestly it’s laughable to me that Sean O’Malley thinks he’s important. He’s a DISASTER for the division & nobody cares about him • Sells no PPVs • No personality • Let’s other dudes fuck his wife • 2 undeserved title shots • 0 good wins other than robberies • Dana White privilege entire career • No IG followers • Decision merchant • Horrible coach (it’s almost over sug) Not only shot he not get a 3rd underserved title shot he should probably be cut from the UFC he’s probably overpaid

Sean O’Malley has been propped up by UFC propaganda his entire career. He’s not a ā€œsuperstarā€ & nobody actually cares about him Just bc he robbed Yan 4 years ago doesn’t justify a 3rd undeserved title shot. He’s a glorified bum
Sean O’Malley was so confused when Daniel Cormier asked Petr Yan about fighting Song Yadong next instead of him 😭 ā€œDC, I don’t know what he’s thinking. I beat [Song] like 6 months ago. I’m fighting Petr Yan next, I don’t care. It’s gonna be the greatest, biggest bantamweight fight in UFC history.ā€ (via @SugaSeanMMA)

The worst part of this entire Islam situation is people acting like Carlos Prates is some 10 fight win streak #1 contender He’s got wins over Leon Edwards & Geoff Neal. Legit his only good win is crybaby JDM & all of these wins come after he got dominated by Ian Machado Garry

ā€œiSlAm MaKhAcHeV iS hOlDiNg Up ThE wElTeRwEiGhT dIvIsIoNā€ Apparently we need to crown Mike Malott as the UFC WW champ bc he’s the only guy in the top 10 who’s fought more than 1 time in 2026 C - Islam Makhachev: 1 1 - Ian Machado Garry: 1 2 - Carlos Prates: 1 3 - Michael Morales: 0 4 - Jack Della Maddalena: 1 5 - Gabriel Bonfim: 1 6 - Sean Brady: 1 7 - Belal Muhammad: 1 8 - Leon Edwards: 0 9 - Kamaru Usman: 1 10 - Mike Malott: 2
