Mixed Martial Arts
🚨 UFC Bantamweight champion Merab Dvalishvili says the biggest mistake Petr Yan made in their first bout was not respecting him. Yan has said he was only 50% in that first fight as he had an existing hand injury on his right hand.
“He didn’t respect me in the first fight. He was thinking I wouldn’t be able to do anything against him. Whatever I was better at, I’m sure he will fix it and I have to be an even better version.”
🚨 Paddy Pimblett says he hopes UFC Welterweight champion Jack Della Maddalena (JDM) batters Islam Makhachev at UFC 322 on November 15, 2025 in New York City. Pimblett wants JDM to punch Makhachev’s head in and says JDM is a much better boxer. Pimblett took issue with Makhachev asking who Pimblett has beat. Pimblett says he’ll punch Makhachev’s head in as well.
🚨 Jack Della Maddalena believes his grappling ability will surprise Islam Makhachev and that he has the right technique for Makhachev’s A-game.
“I think it’ll throw him off a bit.”
🚨 Aljamain Sterling on Merab Dvalishvili’s activity as he’s going for his fourth title defense of 2025 at UFC 323 on December 6, 2025 in Las Vegas, NV.
“I think as long as [Merab] is doing the work, he’s going to be prepared. But he owes us all a vacation after this. The training partners need a break.”
🚨 Manny Pacquiao says he’d fight Conor McGregor as McGregor talks too much and he wants to shut his mouth. Pacquiao gives respect to Khabib Nurmagomedov.
“Khabib’s a nice person, humble, an inspiration. He’s a good role model.”
