@travispickler Many are now talking about how tough he was for making it 4 rounds. Sad.

The Ilia fans’ meltdown is hilarious because if you said Gaethje had a chance of making it competitive, they would laugh and call you delusional. The same people who said Ilia would KO Justin in 2 minutes are now mad that Ilia didn’t fight a slow-paced technical battle 😂

@Pittsburgh1Pete I never understood British humor or “humour” if you will.

Nobody, and I mean ABSOLUTELY NOBODY is wanting an Austin Powers return in 2026. These movies sucked then, and would only suck worse now.
IGN@IGN
Austin Powers will return for a fourth movie, creator Mike Myers has said. bit.ly/4xyErdX

@GavinNewsom That’s true given Trump will be president until January 2029
English
Makes sense.
JD is going to need a job in 2028 since he won’t be president.
Aaron Rupar@atrupar
JD Vance is auditioning to be a Fox host apparently

Justin Gaethje fans are gonna insult you and say the same shit everytime. But its not gonna stop me from spreading the word that there was 100% something up with that Ilia fight. The gloves, the parlays, the event. Everything. #ufcwhitehouse #ufcfreedom250 #IliaTopuria
English
Am I the only one who feels like this is fine? Ilia has had precisely one high level lightweight fight, and it was for a vacant belt. Only defended at 145 once too. I get that he's great, but he doesn't have much of a tenure yet as a champion. He's not above being a contender.
Fight Basics@fightbasicz
Justin Gaethje rejected the possibility of a rematch with Ilia Topuria. According to Gaethje, Topuria quit, and Justin completely dominated the fight. Gaethje deservedly won the title, and now he is expected to take some time off. By all accounts, his first title defense is likely to come against Arman Tsarukyan later this year. What do you think? Should ilia get the rematch?

It’s crazy that this is a conversation we are having this Monday
But what’s next for Ilia Topuria?
English
Josh Hokit got a Full ride to Fresno University where he was a dual sport all American. He graduated with a 3.5 in political science. The dude is a high achieving, highly educated, individual. H s very obviously doing a bit to be a pro wrestling heel. If you don’t get that, you’re an ignoramus.

(Much love other than this stupid post)

Not really helping to dispel any public perceptions that the UFC is by and for ignoramuses

@EthanAnthony4 @ChampRDS It wasn’t some controversial decision, dude got the absolute shit kicked out of him
English
@ChampRDS Guy is champ for 30min and he thinks he can call shots like this lol. You might beat him again, but he’s a two division champ. If he wants next he’s gonna get next.
English
Justin Gaethje doesn't think Ilia Topuria deserves an immediate rematch:
"He's in the hospital right now, and I'm not... I made him quit on the stool."
Championship Rounds@ChampRDS
Justin Gaethje on the moment Ilia Topuria first got cut: "He's such a pretty boy that he was so concerned about the blood, immediately. He started touching it over and over." #UFCWhiteHouse

The stakes for McGregor vs. Holloway just got WAY higher
English
Paddy put up a better fight against Justin than Ilia did
English
Their most reliable and mainstream fighter just got murdered in a gimmick fight that didn’t really meant anything, I know the paramount deal is done already, but I’m not sure who even is supposed to be the face of the company right now
English
Damn Topuria bro I hate seeing confident people lose man
English
@ElMatadorEra @lucierlago @ArmanUfc That’s the dumbest argument I’ve ever heard
“If your guy got beat up as bad as my guy got beat up by your guys he would have quit earlier”
English
@lucierlago @ArmanUfc Hurting the face isn’t the only deciding factor, Justin couldn’t KO a guy with no vision lol. That fight should have stopped after round 3 but Ilia has balls of steel, Gaethje would have pulled out in a similar situation.
English
@itsmesayann @ArmanUfc Bro he’s in the hospital right now what were you watching
English
@HighLvlBoxing22 That’s like saying sprinters are faster than NFL WRs
English
@SICKYDOESMMA He got beat up about as bad as I’ve ever seen someone get beat up, not sure what fight you watched
English
I know people are gonna hate on this but my opinion of Topuria hasnt changed too much.
Like its not even like he looked bad aside from not much head movement compared to other fights.
His grappling, wrestling, boxing still looked elite.

@BlackLotusTD I suppose but dude is a disrespectful cocksucker so whatever. Glad he got humbled by a 37 y/o good ol boy
English
@BurgerPadre True but I respect that they care enough about their guy to save him from his ego. My dislike for him doesn’t mean I wish him any lasting harm, just presently lol. Also if we are being honest, going out for a 5th after all that damage could have shortened his career. So it’s fine
English
After all that shit talk. Topuria had to go 3 rounds against a heavy hitter and he was humbled. He didn’t want that 4th round. He only made it competitive because of the extra rest. I wanted him to go out for a 5th. I wanted Gaethje to sleep him. They spared him. #UFCFreedom250
English
@Agrumpycomedian You’re gonna get to see Conor get the shit kicked out of him very soon
English
I still think Ilia Topuria has all the makings to be one of the GOATs of the sport.
But I also think this fight showed us a lot about the holes in his game.
Justin Gaethje does that to people.
