@FightFanatic_ Staying champion is hard? That's weird to hear from the guy who, once heavyweight champion, refused to fight anyone other than 42 year old stipe miocic, then held onto the belt for another year, without any injuries holding him back, just because he wanted to pad his champion run

🚨 A year ago, Jon Jones explained why staying champion is the hardest part. “Winning the belt is difficult, but living and maintaining the lifestyle of a champion is even harder. Staying champion is hard too. The fame, media, money, alcohol and women affect you twice as much. Everything adds up, and very few people can handle it. In the end, for every champion it comes down to time. Very few are able to stay at the top for a long time.” Aged like fine wine. 👀🥶

@Empressmish13 @realannapaulina That was josh hokit first of all, second of all, it was at the ceremonial weigh ins not the Lincoln memorial, and third, it was a fake stunt, he wasn't really drunk or puking.

@realannapaulina Isn't that the guy who was so drunk he barfed all over himself on the steps of the Lincoln Memorial?

@Timcast They do cards almost every Saturday, become a regular viewer!

i love UFC

@jackunheard You should start watching ufc regularly. They have events most Saturdays.

I might just watch the UFC Freedom 250 event again tonight it was that good.

@guntotinchick Perhaps not freedom 250 unfortunately, but the ufc has cards almost every Saturday if you are interested. I'm looking forward to next weekend's main event.

Dear President Trump: can we please do the UFC 250 every weekend until the 4th of July? That was pure, American badassery! 🇺🇸

@DrunkRepub Watch every week!

Not gonna lie: I was a little skeptical of the UFC event on the White House lawn. But that was badass!

@NycJrgxxx @ufcontnt Watch every week! Great stuff.

@ufcontnt 1st Time I’ve watched UFC Western Civilization Tradition Primal & Transcendent Personae Strength Cunning Beautiful

"IF YOU ARE WHAT YOU SAY YOU ARE...A SUPERSTAR" 🎵 Sean O'Malley with an EPIC entrance at The White House! 👏 #UFCWhiteHouse | Stream TNT Sports on HBO Max

@hambinooo @DovySimuMMA @AspinallMMA He got eye surgery, he should be fine now, and he is cleared for training, he verbally agreed to gane's "Paris in September" fight request. The ufc just needs to give them the contract.

@DovySimuMMA @AspinallMMA Tom I thought you had permanent eye damage

‼️😲Tom Aspinall’s on Ciryl Gane defeating Alex Pereira “They look a bit illegal. They look very illegal— He looked good. I’ll have to watch that again, it looked like there was a lot of illegal elbows and punches.” via @AspinallMMA

@JTFOz @kal_kasi Well, merab and horiguchi are both 35 and they look great. Makachev could still last quite a while, especially if he leans into the grappling.

@kal_kasi For sure, he'll get his career back on track, but who knows where Islam will be at that point. He's at the tail end of his prime.

Fallout from the UFC White House event: • We're never getting Topuria vs Islam. Makhachev turns 35 in the fall and has too many good contenders at 170lbs to fight... Yet another "super fight" is dead in the water • Which might not be a bad thing because it won't hold up a stacked 155lbs division • Tough look for Topuria who was on the verge of entering the GOAT conversation. He might have another long layoff ahead of him which isn't good for a guy in the thick of his prime • A potential fight between Gaethje and Benoit Saint-Denis is one of the most exciting fights the UFC can make • Pereira looked pretty bad at heavyweight, but a fight vs Josh Hokit makes a lot of sense right now • Merab deserves an immediate rematch vs Yan, but the UFC will want to give it to O'Malley, which to be fair, is the more exciting fight • Time to throw Bo Nickal into the deep end of the pool

@CheftimeDev_ @Jeansilvamma96 Gaethje is past his prime, that doesn't necessarily mean they are washed.

@Jeansilvamma96 No way Illia got knocked out by a washed 37 Justin Gaethje lol what a joke and Illia is calling out Ryan Garcia he needs some serious help

This is MMA, Justin is insanely tough

@DAGESTAN_PR @acdmma_ @expertmma97 Honestly, I wouldn't call myself an expert but I'm pretty sure that it is harder to grapple when your face has been pummeled into a crater.

@acdmma_ @expertmma97 Retards on this app tried to tell us ilia had good grappling

Ilia Topuria attempted to use the same mounted triangle that Khabib submitted Justin Gaethje with, but was unable and failed to do it

@combat_Stand @uhvaimorre Ok, counterpoint, Tom was getting beat in round one, but it was not a one sided domination. And it was a 5 round fight. It isn't fair to assume that Gane would have won without even finishing a round.

@smith522011 @uhvaimorre Tom aint getting past Gane…

I think Gane was winning that regardless, but holy shit man can we get one fight where the guy doesn’t cheat in the finishing sequence? Just cheating and cheating and holding up the division fucking off to go make movies and he’s just constantly gifted and rewarded for it, in no planet this guy deserved to even be in this card

@sonorancleaners @Rusty17Clark @catturd2 Sure, that makes sense, but this is the president we are talking about. And you and I know damn well that the seashell formation was not natural. Why else would someone put that down? It isn't like someone was suggesting that they nix a "number 47" from some restaurant menu.

@smith522011 @Rusty17Clark @catturd2 To get rid of could mean im throwing you in the trash….to dispose of could mean im putting you down the garbage disposal….these are all broad terms that are hyperbolic…..

The Left had no problem with James Comey posting 8647, but a fighter saying Michelle Obama is a man, is the end of the world. Give me a break.

@sonorancleaners @Rusty17Clark @catturd2 If you look it up, it does in fact mean what you say it means, but it also means to get rid of or dispose of something or someone and has been used this way for a long time.

@Rusty17Clark @catturd2 Waaaaa she is right so im going to call her names because im a big baby and i want to complain about people who dont worship politicians waaaaaaaaa

@eightstarfive @meltbruhhh @MerabDvalishvil Maybe Ilia didn't suck, maybe gaethje just locked in.

@smith522011 @meltbruhhh @MerabDvalishvil give me one example of when gaethje has ever looked that good

Proud of my warrior Brother ilia 🦾❤️. I know he will come back stronger than ever. ამაყი ვარ ჩემი მეომარი ძმით. 🦾❤️.ვიცი, რომ ილია უფრო ძლიერი დაბრუნდება ვიდრე ოდესმე.

@JstKasper @HappyPunch To be fair, Gaethje hits like a truck and despite his age, he is not a bum.

@HappyPunch The funniest thing is that Ilia thought he could beat Arman and Khabib when he couldn't beat a 40 year old who was about to retire.

Arman Tsarukyan just won $5.7 MILLION on Justin Gaethje beating Ilia Topuria 😳

@meltbruhhh @MerabDvalishvil Gaethje is past his prime but he still is no bum.

@MerabDvalishvil He’s done. You can’t get your ass beat after talking all that cringe by a bum and come back

@HarshraoXAi @espnmma Fraud? No. But he truly showed that nobody is unbeatable.

@espnmma Gaethje just cooked Topuria's undefeated hype. Old man exposed the fraud in one night 🤣

JUSTIN GAETHJE HAS WON THE UNDISPUTED LIGHTWEIGHT TITLE AFTER HANDING ILIA TOPURIA HIS FIRST EVER MMA LOSS 😱 ABSOLUTE CINEMA 🎥

@Martytude @UFCEurope @cryptocom @RamTrucks Ferguson had to take far more of these fights to end up in his state, Ilia has never looked like this before.

@UFCEurope @cryptocom @RamTrucks he will never be the same. Khabib said the same about Tony. He took way too much damage. He will come back and lose.

What next for Ilia Topuria after #UFCWhiteHouse?! Presented by @cryptocom & @ramtrucks
