@MatTalkMMA Contender series son fly to usa and make a camp

Pov Adesanya in 2026

@TheWormLumbriga Let me know when you’re in camp and I’ll fly out. Where are you at Worm?

@MatTalkMMA Brazilian not have wresting im need your help coach

@ChampRDS Please bring Nate Diaz back bro, the UFC needs shit stirred up lol

Nate Diaz just went OFF on Daniel Cormier, Dustin Poirier AND Charles Oliveira 😭 “[Poirier] is a p*ssy. He had penis removal surgery, so we didn’t get to fight.” “[DC] I was nowhere near champion and I got paid way more money than you. That’s a f*cking bitter little b*tch. You’re a great wrestler, you can’t fight for sh*t.” “B*tch ass Oliveira. I believe I’d beat the f*cking sh*t out of [him]. He’s walking around with my belt.” (via @TheoVon)

It is officially the turn of the tide with a new generation of fighters and contenders coming in. Light Heavyweight - Carlos Ulberg Middleweight - Khamzat Chimaev - Nassourdine Imavov - Caio Borralho - Joe Pyfer - Christian Leroy Duncan Welterweight - Ian Garry - Michael Morales - Gabriel Bonfim - Uros Medic - Joaquin Buckley Lightweight - Arman Tsarukyan - Paddy Pimblett - Mauricio Ruffy - Manuel Torres Featherweight - Movsar Evloev - Lerone Murphy - Jean Silva - Youssef Zalal - Kevin Vallejos - Melquizael Costa - David Onama Bantamweight - Aiemann Zahabi - Payton Talbott - Raul Rosas Jr. - Farid Basharat Flyweight - Joshua Van - Manel Kape - Lone’er Kavanagh - Tatsuro Taira - Asu Almabayev We are moving on but a few division unicorns hold their place as #1 - Alex Volkanovski - Alex Pereira - Valentina Shevchenko

These former champions are all on losing streaks 😳 Who snaps theirs first?

@deaths0079 @BlindBearMedia Yeah I think that Ulberg is a better striker than Reyes. Ulberg also KO’ed in the first round…

@MatTalkMMA @BlindBearMedia "He is more accurate, quicker, and a better striker overall" So was Reyes

Damn bro Jiri fights NEXT WEEK😳🔥 Do you think he beats Carlos Ulberg?

@CBDC6930 @jedigoodman Agree with that! However, do you feel that Mike Perry is better than Conor McGregor? I mean I feel it’s pretty unanimous that Oliveira and McGregor are better opponents. He said he was offered more money for a fight with McGregor from UFC and he picked Perry?

@MatTalkMMA @jedigoodman Him asking for the harder fight against a more active opponent should be credited not dissed.

Nate Diaz says he wants to go back to the UFC. Says everything is timing. They offered more money than MVP MMA, but they wanted him to fight Conor McGregor and he wanted to fight Charles Oliveira for the BMF belt.

@ThatCageMathGuy @DovySimuMMA @JohnMorgan_MMA I’m not against that fight either, one of those two needs to be next. Do we feel Izzy should be in another main event fight though, like a Fight Night main event?

@MatTalkMMA @DovySimuMMA @JohnMorgan_MMA Izzy vs Robocop

🚨RANKINGS UPDATE Israel Adesanya DROPS 5 spots to #9 Joe Pyfer MOVES UP 8 spots to #6 Brendan Allen randomly moves up 2 spots

@casti16461 @WalnutMMA UFC shouldn’t feed Izzy any gimmes just due to his skid. We are seeing the downfall of Izzy he is 36 years old, Izzy is 13-6 in the UFC. Dare I say he is over the hill? Does that still exist when Pereira is 38 and thriving?

@WalnutMMA Want Izzy dead ? Bro he needs an easier opponent than that 😅

Feed me Adesanya Vs Robocop

@WalnutMMA This is the fight to make, Izzy vs CLD

@MerabDvalishvil @Aviator_SPRIBE How can you not love Merab. He might be the happiest guy on this planet.

Car-cuzzi one day, Bar B Cuzzi the next 😅😂 #donttrythisathome

@BlindBearMedia Done! 🤝

@MatTalkMMA completely agree, also fb bro

BE HONEST: Do you think this fight will ever happen?

@arielhelwani I feel like we are putting a lot of hype in McGregor getting booked. Let’s not count on that! Even after he is booked there is no guarantee he gets in the octagon.

It looks like we are in store for an incredible summer. Khamzat in May. Ilia in June. Conor in July? Islam in August? Business appears to be picking up. That's a pretty damn good stretch of numbered events.

@ChampRDS Arman is the definition of active even while the UFC aren’t using him. Him weighing in as the backup is a great idea, why not? I’d be interested to know the “different things” he is referring to.

🚨 Arman Tsarukyan says he's staying ready in case he's needed as the backup for Ilia Topuria vs Justin Gaethje at the White House He also says his next fight will be announced after the Topuria vs Gaethje fight, and it'll likely be against the winner… but there are also "different things" that can happen 👀 (via @arielhelwani)

@mmaonpoint This interview will never get old, Moicano nailed this!

S TIER UFC post fight interview 😂 Renato Moicano fight week!

@Wilbel_V @RAFWrestlingUSA I hope they plan to come back to Tampa and I hope they make @yuenglingcenter a normal home and visit often. You got a fan in me!

@Wilbel_V RAF is a wonderful show and they produce a wonderful product. I would recommend this to anyone it was a 10/10 experience! @RAFWrestlingUSA

Just left RAF Tampa and I’ll say this… The SHOW is legit 🔥 You can feel the Eric Bischoff influence everywhere. WWE style entrances, fireworks, big screens, music, round cards… it feels BIG. Celebs and creators like Nina-Marie Daniele cageside too. But here’s the truth… The presentation is ahead of the SPORT right now. Arman vs Giorgio had a real story. That’s what this needs more of. We wanted more wrestling, more continuation from that first fight. Across the rest of the card, it felt inconsistent. The quick stand-ups limit the flow and take away from the competition. Overall? I had a great time. RAF is onto something… But the sport side needs to catch up to the show. What do y’all think? 👇 #RAF #MMA #Wrestling #FightNight #CombatSports #MMATwitter #UFC #FightFans #SportsEntertainment
