Polish fighter suffered a shoulder Injury during training that will not Only keep him out of the fight but he'll Also have have to undergo an operation To repair the Damage Done rage wasn't Happy with the news and slamed blich Writing he can never lose a rematch when You pull out for the second time Legendary [ __ ] let's see if the Samurai has the balls to step up on January 20th at mcard at Dana White to These comments y fired back writing First he cries after I broke him then he Cries when I need to take care of my Injury be happy that I will not break You this time again you cannot go and Continue to cry despite this looks like Rakit will get to face another big name Because Yi prohaska responded to the Call out writing I am in but the Earliest time I can be in the Octagon is February/march Accept rage responded yes let's do February 17th in Anaheim at MC Maynard At Dana White the sente luk reveals Ian G's disrespect could lead to kill Cliff Ban the battle between teammates started Off very respectful following the fight Announcement Gary shared a private Conversation he had with pente luk which Was filled with mutual respect however That all seems like years ago at this Point in the buildup to the fight Ian Took a different approach when he mocked
LC's decision to get baptized on Instagram now in an interview with Middle easy luk mentioned that Gary's Recent Trash Talk could result in him Not being allowed to return to the kill Cliff Fight Club as of now Ian the Younger fighter is training elsewhere Leaving the gym in preparation for his UFC 296 fight against his former Teammate viente said we're tough guys But there is some things that we find Disrespectful I'm sure a lot of guys Didn't appreciate the comment he made in My Instagram comment section I myself Did feel like that was disrespect I'm Not going to take it personally but I Did feel like hey I was doing something Really important for me I posted about It and he chose to make fun of it I'm Sure many guys look at that and think Hey he was a teammate for us now he's Fighting against one of us and he Decides to change his attitude I don't Know maybe at the end when everything is Said and done he can work to get back Into the team and train with time if Ian Wants to get back back to the team Eventually maybe maybe he can get back But right now I'm the guy on the team so Everybody has my back I really Appreciate that it's good to be a part Of a team like Kil Cliffe like I've been For so long we've had different names in All these years but still the same crew
To have all these guys supporting me It's really Positive Mike bisbing has shared his Prediction for the Kobe Covington versus Leon Edwards fight next Saturday Covington will get a chance which could Be his last to become the UFC Welterweight champion when he faces off Against Leon Edwards in the main event Of UFC 296 speaking on his bym podcast Bisbing made a short breakdown of the Fight and explain why he's leaning Towards Edwards to beat Covington Leon Edwards is a pretty straightforward guy When I said straightforward he's going To come out and Striker now of course he Was able to take kamaru down in the First round when they fought the second Time mounted him took his back so I Think he's got some sneaky grappling but For the most part his motus upendi is Always on the feet so Kobe knows what He's going to do he's going to fight him Like he fights everybody so I don't Think there'll be any surprises so to Speak yeah no it is going to be tough And of course Leon's way taller he's way Longer he's way faster he is more Technical as well so it's a tough one For Colby I I I I think Leon probably Gets the job done I think Kobe will have Some moments you know what I mean when You look at those fights with Kamar Usman yes when you look at the record
Two losses but there were some big Moments for Kobe in both those fights he Definitely wobbled kamaru a couple of Times he definitely you know he Definitely made kamaru Usman dig deep You know what I mean so you must not be Seeing right with that one eye Daniel Cormier has gone into detail on what It's like to fight Jon Jones DC was Recently a guest on The Joe Rogan Experience where he talked about his Fights against Jones while speaking with Joe DC said bones is on a different Level than other Fighters and described The pain he would inflict to his foes When they would try to get close to him I tell you that hey dude it hurts so bad I'm say it hurts so bad the kicks to the Body and the knees cuz you know me like Kane me and Kane were forward forward Forward head movement get close punch Punch take you down right but with him He was a South ball so his lead leg was Right there so I wanted to grab a single Leg but this dude be stepping back Kneeing me kneeing me kneeing me and Then ID be like okay so I need to stop Going forward so now I'm at range and he Blast body kick and then body kick so Now you're like [ __ ] I'm not going to Stay on the end of these body kicks cuz They hurt so then you get close and he Needes you so it's like you're landing And I'm hitting
Him but he's hitting me with things that May not be as big like my hand overhand Right looks big but that knee just goes Boom right in the rib every time boom Right in the rib and then every now and Again they catch you right in the Middle that [ __ ] hurts bad man I don't Even know how the hell I was going Through all that in that octagon Anthony Smith believes he could get a title shot With a win at UFC Vegas Smith stepped up On short notice to face khil rry in the Coem main event of Saturday's UFC Vegas 83 this might be a key fight for the Division and although Jamal Hill is Likely to be next in line Smith thinks That with a great performance on Saturday he could have in that spot so You know Jamal says he's going to come Back but you know Toran ailles who knows When he's going to really come back but There's a shot you go out there you do What you do to khil Alex might just call Your name right so I mean are you kind Of looking at looking at this fight like You you win this fight dominantly Alex Calls your name you're fighting for the Title next Um I just think I just need to not give Them any other option you know I I I Don't it's I know Champions always want To feel like they make all the decisions But if there is no clear Contender and And I go in there and I look really good
And and and put myself in a position Where people start asking for it then That's the fight um but we got to hurry Up and do it quick because we got ancle And Johnny Walker fighting and then Rakic and valovich like let's do it Quick and then hopefully they just want To sign it really fast before those guys Fight time for today's top three memes Third place was found over Reddit and Was posted by a user named Street Actuator the second place meme was found Over Facebook and was posted by a user Named Robert and the top picked meme was found Over Reddit and was posted by a usern Named Punisher Pipkin Thanks for watching if you like the Content smash that like button and don't Forget to subscribe to stay in the Talk
