I just got the OK from some important, generous people to cover #UFC248. It'll be the last UFC event (along with many other orgs) I GIF for the foreseeable future. A new chapter is upon me and it's exciting. Thank y'all for helping me level up. Let's end Phase One with a bang. 👊

@Grabaka_Hitman @MMASucka @bisping @NandaPrates_ @LynchOnSports @MyMMANews @RyanAWagMMA @MikeLovesTacosX @JackSlackMMA @stylebender Much love, Caposa. You’re a real one. 🙏

@VonPreux @MMASucka @bisping @NandaPrates_ @LynchOnSports @MyMMANews @RyanAWagMMA @MikeLovesTacosX @JackSlackMMA @stylebender whatever it is, you deserve it Kyle. Congrats man

Proof that Israel Adesanya is this generation's Anderson Silva: He chose his eighth UFC bout to have his first legendarily terrible fight. Silva's eighth UFC foe? Patrick Côté. This is a next-level homage to his hero. #UFC248

Romero Shuffle on repeat. #UFC248

Zhang Weili and Joanna Jędrzejczyk just staged the best women's bout of all time, nay one of the best you'll ever see in any damn context. We are truly blessed. 🙏

What an incredible bout between Beneil Dariush and Drakkar Klose! Second-round pyrotechnics conclude with Klose's mouthpiece dangling. 😯

Among MMA's noodly assassins, few are as comfortable up close as Neil Magny. #UFC248

Alex "Cowboy" Oliveira edges Max "Pain" Griffin in the battle of welterweight action fighters. This was bloody and turbulent - a great PPV opener. #UFC248

The Sugar Show 2.0 was worth the wait. Too sweet! 👌

@PRIDEFC_FAN I’m sorry, my friend, but I won’t be GIFing the UFC or much else on here for the foreseeable future. The reason, however, is quite exciting. Hopefully, I can talk more about it soon. Trust me, good times are ahead. 👍

@VonPreux I summon thee! Thou shalt show us thy gif powers!!!

@Magic_Mark787 @asianmma @Hirobad724 Yes, I’ve seen him multiple times. He’s a great grappler with accomplishments beyond his age. Expect him to slot neatly among SW contenders - most interestingly as a rival to former conqueror and fellow Shooto champ Yosuke Saruta.

@asianmma @Hirobad724 @VonPreux have you seen him before?

Koha Minowa (@Hirobad724) signs with ONE Championship asianmma.com/koha-minowa-si…

With six combined reigns across three divisions, Yuki Motoya (@yuki_motoya) and Takafumi Otsuka clashed for bragging rights among DEEP's all-time greats. And it's the former who mastered his foe - displaying enhanced boxing ability to go with his grappling chops. #DEEP94IMPACT

@DDziubicki Stallone was DQ'd as well for these knees. Oyama couldn't continue.

Ryo Sakai got DQd in his fight with Tatsuya Mizuno because of grounded knee in October. I'm still confused about current DEEP ruleset.

Ryuichiro Sumimura (@10_ryuichiro) is still your DEEP welterweight champ, warring with former king Yuta Watanabe in their rematch to snag a stirring UD win. His second successful defense boosts him to 16-7. 'Twas one of the better fights this weekend. 👏 #DEEPIMPACT94

KRAZY BEE's Kyosuke Yokoyama (13-7, 1 NC) moves to 4-1 in his last five, taking time to constrict the consciousness out of Daisuke Tatsumi in round three! The arm triangle choke caps an impressive showing for the 2015 PANCRASE Neo Blood champ. #DEEP94Impact

@NoKickNoCian He divorced his wife at the end of the year and appears to have full custody of their child. twitter.com/Karaev_Fan/sta…

@VonPreux Oh no did they split up again?

Life as a single dad starts swell for Kizaemon Saiga, as the RIZIN and K-1 alum stops Thailand's JACK in a swift and chaotic MMA return! A series of body shots incorrectly ruled low blows set up the finish. #DEEP94IMPACT

On second thought, the first body shot may have landed low. But the ones immediately afterward did the damage - JACK’s reaction at the end could portend a broken rib.

@katzushi Yeah, I hope he’s OK. Some of those knees were flush. Thankfully, he didn’t go out or look too shaken up as he left. 🙏

@VonPreux Oyama is my friend, so I'm worried.

When you miss PRIDE a bit too much. 😔 #DEEP94IMPACT
