Got my black belt yesterday. Been a long time coming. Thank you to Masters Marcello Bergo of @BTTJax and @fabianoscherner of @ATTPDX. Both of them were teammates at BTT under @murilobusta. I count myself lucky. #bjj #blackbelt #mma #wrestling #attpdx #americantopteam #btt

The UFC going from “we give our champions a belt”
to
“We only lend you a belt you must return on demand at your expense”
is quite the corporate arc.

😳 Demetrious Johnson doubles down on his belief that the UFC is entertainment, not a sport, calling out the promotion for picking and choosing which fighters get opportunities.
“I hear Dana say, ‘We want to keep the best athletes on the planet,’ then there's another side to it. ‘They're not exciting’... You get to f*cking make the matches.
They get to pick and choose what they want to do, It's not a sport, it's entertainment.”

One of the most retarded takes I've heard in awhile.
Without Dana the UFC does not ever grow. Ever . He had to convince some rich dudes to invest , yes. But that investment paid off. If it's so easy why don't you goncinvic e a rich dude to invest in one of your ideas . The UFC was losing money. The UFC wasnt even allowed on ppv. No one made money. Then he built an empire. You have to be a serious hater to not acknowledge that. Boxing promoters with this simple thinking thought they could go to MMA and build something and they all failed miserably . Rich people tried creating MMA promotions and they all failed .

Our message the entire time was that any bill presented by Congress to receive any of our support must contain the following provision:
"Any Promoter operating as a UBO under this section is prohibited from using exclusive contracts."
It is existential—not incremental.

This letter from the @IATSE in support of a bill that defies history and that will lead to fighter and labor exploitation leading to monopoly is extremely disappointing.
We welcome a call to discuss our concerns and ask that you reconsider this misguided support.

Undefeated 50-0 former UFC champion Chael Sonnen got HEATED and had to let Matan and his entire team know he would BEAT THE SH-T out of all of them after they TROLLED him with a fake Khabib trying to wrestle him 😭😲👀
“If this goes bad, you know I’ll dismantle all of you, do you know that? If I engage, I’m gonna assume you’re involved.” 💀
"Money ruins everything," he says. Unless that money is going into his bank account. That's good, of course. Players and fighters... money ruins them. 😂🤡
Dana White isn’t a fan of college athletes getting paid
“It’s a problem. Money ruins everything.”

The grandson of Muhammad Ali, Nico Ali Walsh, just testified in front of The U.S. Senate against The Muhammad Ali American Boxing Revival Act.
He says if the bill is passed it shouldn’t have his grandfather’s name on it.
Below is the full speech:
