Man I’m sorry, I feel cheated watching what I just witnessed. This is the kind of stuff that makes you think there is bullshit going on in the sport
#UFC282
In a perfect world, I would have the 🎬 budget to fly to Dagestan, choose a child actor and shoot him developing into the Islam we see today. In between each scene of this doc, I would show a valuable moment in his life. Wisdom from family, Abdulmanap, him and Khabib as kids.
I know people love to simply hate when it comes to this legend, but looking back at it and being able to see him not even hurt, dropped or have a single drop of blood will age like fine wine. We gotta start appreciating people while they are here. That is so damn rare in MMA
I need to sit down with
@danawhite
and the
@ufc
about these fight night cards that don’t get no coverage. Anatomy of a Fighter could take over these cards and document them since embedded takes the week off. I can do it all by myself 🎬
I want to know what Andrew Tate did to some of you personally to be so happy to see a man you never known Personally get arrested. Do some of you really just live on the internet tweeting out negative things about people who don’t know you exist day after day?
Who the hell in the
@ufc
production office said let’s call this series “Anatomy of a Fight Team” … nah I’m not letting that fly. I put my life into my series by myself. One man band. I’m already owed money from the dolly footage now this. I’m not letting this pass
And this folks is one of the few reasons why I’m transitioning out of MMA space.
It’s too many new weirdos apart of our community that now have microphones. What kind of s**t is this?
Like it or not. This group help change the landscape of MMA. In every facet of the sport. I know my days are coming to an end with it, but when I look back on it, I have more than a friendship, this is a brotherhood. It takes years of sweat equity to build it.

Why are they trying to show that Jon Jones video a year later. We don't give a F**K.... Let that man heal in peace. I can't stand the media.. All for clicks.
I think it speaks volumes on how I am a non Muslim, who is embraced by a group of devout brothers, that accept me for who I am and simply want to see me be a better person. Not one time have I been asked to become a muslim by this group. They only suggest it would improve my…
The conspiracy to discredit my brother
@MAKHACHEVMMA
is wild and crazy just because Volk had his 22 fight win streak snapped and lost a unanimous decision on his own soil. Them boys down under are really salty I see. Oh well, on to the next one I guess.
#ANDSTILL
The UFC welterweight division is dead right now. Like, does anyone want to fight? I am not being sarcastic, it went from the most exciting division to a ghost town of activity.
I saw
@Leon_edwardsmma
in Abu Dhabi out one night and gave him a hug and told him, after the trilogy, we are all going out in England to have a good time , win lose or draw. He looked and me and said, bro there ain't no losing, we have all won (in life). That was Real Champ
funny to me that people think talking shit and making a scene is the only way to be big in the UFC but these two mfs just showed with the most epic staredown in history that these hands are capable of talking way louder.
There is a lot of people in the media that is congratulating Islam on his win publicly, but I saw a lot of y’all hating on the Dagestan crew leading up to this fight. I see everything. A lot of fake folks in this sport.
#UFC280
I still can't get over the crowd booing a champion like Weili Zhang last night. I know why they were to. The MMA fan base can be a piece of shit at times.
#UFC261
Imagine if the UFC had given Francis what he wanted and was able to cross promote this fight with their PR Machine. The impact and dollars they could’ve made after the fight would be insane… They fumbled the bag….
If Jake Paul is fighting Silva, you do realize Silva is 47 and a Paul is 25 and the MMA community and blogs will eat that up as some newsworthy stuff. We are really getting pathetic.... This kid refuses to fight anyone near his age...
On my last appearance on Joe Rogan’s podcast, I talked about how happy I am out of this country and why I’m leaving America and never returning. Part of the reason was being a black man in America and dealing with the senseless violence that goes on in my community. I’m DONE
Between
@LoganPaul
and
@jakepaul
, these Ohio brothers in the past few years have boxed Floyd Mayweather, Anderson Silva, Tyron Woodley, starred in the WWE, produced Misfit Boxing, Joined the PFL and now have an Official Drink of the UFC. Simply Legends
Honestly I am holding in my tears, but I am sure they will flow when I least expect it. You were like a superhero to me when I first came around the blackzilians in 2016. You just told me you would make it through this 💔💔 . We will miss you
@Anthony_Rumble
🙏🏾❤️
Two Dagestani boys, from a country with about 3 Million people, rise to becoming UFC world champions and pound-for-pound bests. I know Abdulmanap is smiling down from Jannah. You can make a movie ASAP

Islam Makhachev is officially the P4P

fighter in the world 🌎👑 As it should be tbh.
Most active current champ, 6 finishes in his last 7, with his only decision win against Volk being the FOTY, easily 🔥
There’s a lot of
@TeamKhabib
slander these days, but let me say this. Manny was way more entertaining than Floyd, but we know who was the better fighter. All this fight shit is apples and oranges. No one was ever beating Khabib. Give it a rest and move the hell on
I would like to thank the
@UFC
brass and everyone involved in helping me protect the "Anatomy of a Fighter" brand. They have informed me, the video will be renamed and posted again later this week. Finally I got some good Karma
#anatomyofafighter
I am confused by a lot of people.
@danawhite
has admitted he’s wrong. He’s owned it. Repeatedly now and he is very wrong. He’s made no excuses. What do want from him? To leave? Then what? So many people talking yet scared to tag him. He’s made not one excuse.
Has there been more marketing and promotion for Power Slap than UFC 284? I mean it is pound for pound 1 and 2, with title on the line. Is that me or do you notice that to with the fight being next week?
#UFC284
I just bought a Powerball ticket for the 360 million today. If I win, I am giving everyone who retweets this 50k for the love. If you like the post, I will pay your basic bills (rent, utilities) for 12 months... Wish me luck.

This will be the greatest clip of
@Tyson_Fury
life documentary. He wouldn't have come back to boxing if it wasn't for Wilder.. They were made for each other
Can someone show me any footage of this juice head even throwing a punch. I am tired of seeing this mess on my timeline. He is welcoming energy that he won't like soon enough. He will be chin checked soon. Watch.
MONDAY THOUGHTS: I hope the UFC invests just as much AD money in this as they did the Ben Askren one. That moment turned Jorge into a star with the Marketing. They should put Usman on the cover of the next UFC game as well. He earned it with his crazy resume.
I have seen DC more excited for fight nights than his little brother winning a title, because of the fan base thinking he is bias towards Islam. A damn shame....
A lot of peoples 🐐 and I can’t argue against that. 26-2, two weight divisions he became champ in. People tend to forget , he was a decision machine and fans didn’t like his style either. Prior to his submission to Bisping, his previous 7 fights were all decisions. Still a 🐐
In my time around
@TeamKhabib
and his crew, I never once heard him say he was the greatest or wanted to be. In an episode in Dubai, Umar said that Khabib was the greatest and he made me take that part out of the video. The guy did not like that kind of talk when it came to him.
Michael Chandler got a title shot on 1 fight from Bellator where he was knocked out in his last Bellator title fight, but Islam, go win 11 in a row 🤦🏿♂️ . PS Chandler is the homie…. MAKE IT MAKE SENSE
#ufc272
This is why I can't stand 70 percent of UFC fans, because there is a big difference between them and the rest..... Colby wasn't lying when he was calling guys virgins and nerds. I get it now.
That's why most of you Twitter incels hate everything cause you look like this. You spend all day angry at everyone because you look like frosted pubes.
Round 1 tomorrow, Masvidal will swing every punch with bad intentions. I mean every swing. He connects, crowd overreacts, a grab will happen. He will be on the ground smiling. The crowd will boo, the round will end and the anticipation is over. 50-46 or stoppage .
#UFC261
I am not sure I will ever get over the fact no one didn't help me get paid for that Mcgregor Dolly footage the UFC used over and over. Yes I am bitter about that. You know what kind of position that could have put me in? Filmmaking is all about the struggle and slim chances.
Imagine Usman being scared to fight a guy who he had looking like this after a fight. I mean, who on earth be believing this shit? My bad, its a WWE character heel thing..
#UFC268
There was this other fighter in the UFC, that had an up and down career like 30 year old Kevin Lee, who eventually went on to become a UFC legend. At one point of career, he had 4 losses and only 2 wins in a 6 fight stretch "TWICE". That 33 year old former champion has a name.
Man this guy won the UFC Light Heavyweight title at 23 years old in 2011 and is the current Heavyweight Champion at the age of 36 in 2023... It's absolutely crazy to even fathom that. Like WTF lol
I remember there was a time, I sat on this same timeline and saw how nasty people were to
@alexvolkanovski
for winning a close decision at Fight Island against Max in their second fight and now
@MAKHACHEVMMA
goes through the same thing. Nothing is knew with
#MMATwitter
Y’all do realize Conor only win at LW was in 2016. It’s 2021... People are still living in 2016. The advancement of the sport and talent in 5 years is insane . Adesanya and so many others hadn’t even fought in UFC yet.
The real question I want answered: Is Colby Covington going to shake Kamaru Usman hand after he loses for a second time and accept he’s not the better man. Masvidal did it with class.
#UFC268
That might of been my last ever UFC Fight week. I love documenting fighters outside of fight weeks, because it is interesting and I get to enjoy watching fights, without the stress. I will make an amazing finale episode and that probably will be my last.

Less than one week after his UFC 266 win, Dan Hooker has agreed to face Islam Makhachev at UFC 267 on Oct. 30, Dana White told
@bokamotoESPN
.
Hooker is replacing Rafael dos Anjos, who was forced out of the UFC 267 bout against Makhachev due to injury.
Let’s talk about the ELEPHANT in the room, how Wonderboy didn’t get his show money after going through a full camp and making weight. That’s wild to me.
