    On my show this week, I called a pro fighter a fraud. Big words, and very powerful and direct, but they were for a reason. This #UFCVegas56 newcomer has been trying to manipulate his record for at least five years, and he's getting put on blast now for recent problematic efforts.

    Sean Strickland just called fellow UFC fighter Li Jingliang, who was asking a question, and I quote, "the chinaman." What the hell are we doing here? This can't be where MMA is headed. #UFC312

    This is the (short) story of Askar Mozharov: This fighter had amassed a pro MMA record of 25-7 on some recordkeeping sites. He made his way to the #UFC, and recently contacted Sherdog Fight Finder to demand that losses be removed from his record. Those losses were very real. 1/10

    Would you consider Rafael dos Anjos a "legend"? #UFCVegas58

    I'm sure he was positively mortified to face...let me check my notes. Tai Tuivasa, Sergey Spivak or Curtis Blaydes a third time after knocking him out twice.

    Dana White provides an update on McGregor vs. Chandler. McGregor is still yet to re-enter the USADA pool, but is still holding out hope that the fight happens this year.

    I don't want to knock the UFC press/PR team, they're lovely people, but how are some of these repeat media member offenders allowed back to cover UFC cards, much less able to get on the microphone and spew their nonsense at the official press conferences? #UFC268

    If two additional fake wins does not seem that dazzling, in May, this fighter showed a record of 25-7 on some sites. Now, he is currently registered at 17-13. That is a level of record manipulation that almost defies description, and a win pct. drop from .781 to .567. 11/10 end

    It's official: Adriano Moraes (135.25) has missed championship weight by .25 pounds and failed his hydration test as well. He has about six hours to get both situated or it becomes a big drama show. #ONEonPrimeVideo1

    He did it! Justin Tafa is the first heavyweight in #UFC history to miss weight! Also, if the fight stays together, Macy Chiasson will be the first women's featherweight to miss weight and compete as well. #UFCVegas45

    We just had a double-whammy of wild news at #UFCVegas65. The bigger story, however, is not Derrick Lewis' illness/injury and main event scratch, as unfortunate as that is. It's that Glory MMA coach James Krause was suddenly suspended/pulled by the #UFC.

    I get that no entity is going to put out a statement or say anything further about Dana White slapping his wife, so is this the work of a vengeful #UFC staffer, or what? That's on the UFC YT page, no joke. (shoutout to @RawrEWreckz)
