@kennyflorian @AnikFlorianPod However one would assume Van is much improved fighter since then. Can’t wait to see what happens.

@kennyflorian @AnikFlorianPod I had the same thought, but part of me also watches Vans fight with Tsuruya who was able to get Van down a couple times with absolutely zero striking threat. I think Taira does a much better job of blending his striking together with his grappling.

One thing I regrettably forgot to mention on @AnikFlorianPod on my breakdown of Van v Taira was how beneficial it must’ve been for Van to have a full training camp preparing for a better and more experienced version of Taira in Alexandre Pantoja last time out. Working on same skills/tactics in back to back camps is usually where great gains are made. Catch the full episode below. 🙏

Hey everyone, I wanted to address Dana White’s comments from this past weekend, because the truth matters to me and the fans.
Dana, you were heated about why I’m not on the White House card, but let’s clear something up. My team and I were actually negotiating with the UFC for that fight. Real negotiations. I even came down from my original number, and what was I offered in return ? I was lowballed .
Yes, I have arthritis in my hip and it’s painful, but that doesn’t mean I can’t fight.
So let me get this straight, if I had accepted the lowball offer, suddenly my hip would be fine and I’d be on the White House card? That doesn’t make sense.
I even received stem cell treatment last week to get ready for the White House card, and training camp was scheduled to start today. I was preparing to be ready.
I understand business deals fall through sometimes, but going out publicly and saying things that aren’t true isn’t right.
After everything I’ve given to the UFC , the years, the title defenses, the fights , hearing that I’m “done” is disappointing. Especially when as recently as Friday UFC was calling me trying to get me on that White House card for a much lower number.
If the UFC truly feels like I’m done, then I respectfully ask to be released from my contract today.
No more spins, no more games.
Thank you to the real fans who know what’s up.
Bones out.
