Mark Zuckerberg won gold and silver medal, the first one in the Nogi Master 1 White Belt Feather Weight Division and the silver medal in the Gi Master 2 White Belt Feather Weight Division.
Zuckerberg's advantage is his good Jujutsu experience but Elon's advantage is his height and weight but there is a thing that I don't understand. Even if both of them agree, how will they be able to fight when they are in two completely different weight divisions? It will be very hard for Elon Musk to cut weight because of how mentally busy he is and I don't think that Mark Zuckerberg is willing to gain fat. It will take him a year or two to gain some pounds of muscle without steroids. There is a big difference in their height and weight to make this match happen. And they aren't professionals after all and are too old to lose a lot of fat or gain muscle.

Yup! for sure let's not focus on the color of their skin and their nationality, for the important part here is to focus more on their upcoming fight, Israel Adesanya is the Champion and for sure he is readying his style-bending powers to counter what Dricus Du Plessis have in store for him, while Dricus has a good traction of making good study of his current opponent every nok and cranny of them, he will surely notice it all, even the great Robert Whittaker is not a match against Du Plessis but against Israel Adesanya that doesn't have any given one-sided style he will likely have some problem about it, but for sure I will still get some research on this matter,


It was a technical shot and Bo Nickal is pretty much capable at those part, pretty much his boxing skills was really that advance than Val Woodburn, and it was a master class striker for sure and I want to see Bo Nickal in the upper bracket of the division and fight the top rank guys over there pretty much that is what everyone wants to see for sure,


Mark Zuckerberg might learning Jui Jutsu but for sure it is not real fighting the BJJ instructor is saying what to do and he execute it that way for sure that training video was all a ploy sure experience is needed to execute this kind of moves and to enhanced it further and surely Mark Zuckerburg wants to study BJJ but he doesn't want to get hurt either well the instructor then spoon feeding Zuckerburg for sure,

Dricus is crazy. Whatever his reason for raising such issue is just him. But I Think UFC will be invaded by politics, Trump walking with Dana in UFC 290 is like  Trump promotion.


They are billionaires, both of them probably have plans to rule the world lol they're not gonna let Dana play them around. Mark and Elon wouldn't mind watching UFC fight nights but them inside the cage is like allowing themselves to be fooled.

Lets just say that these are independent professional fighters trying to earn a living and trying to prove that they are the best fighters and it was cringe to actually see Israel Adesanya take race and country as if he wants to prove something about his origin. Israel Adesanya is playing the race card and trying to take it to a different route might irritate some of the fans.

There's no way Zuckerberg is a black belt. Most professional UFC fighters who train jj are not ranked that high. He competed in some tournaments but in the white-belt categories. So it's still a very long way to go for him if he ever gets there.

I don't think any of them would want that fight to be honest, so yeah, it's just 100% trolling.

Any thoughts on Aspinall Vs Tybura (UFC London)? Aspinall is definitely better but returning after a pretty bad injury so there's always some uncertainty.

Just made my picks for the Multi Master and the more I think about it, the more I see this *sarcasm starts here* 'banger  of a card' is really a sleeper banger...  Meaning you don't expect it to be good but it turns out actually good in the end.  It could surprise us for real guys, I'm not kidding.  

Anyway, I got 8 match ups to finish inside the distance.  But for underdogs, I got just 4.  5 if you consider Azaitar an underdog.

First of all, I don’t think it is going to happen, and I also think that Elon Musk is just trolling. A lot of people don't know, but Mark Zuckerberg is actually a black belt in jujitsu as far as I know. He was the winner of a jujitsu competition which was held during the time of Covid. Probably he is just draining and trying to get better. But at the same time, I do not underestimate the chance of the fight happening. There is a genuine chance that we will actually see them fight against each other. But right now I think Elon Musk is just having fun. Otherwise, I think Elon Musk would have trained for the fight. But instead of that, we see him posting different photos of himself being out of shape on Twitter.

It adds up the spice for their fight actually. Izzy I think will take Dricus seriously in their division because of this. No wearing of flags soon, it just going to ruin the party.

Meanwhile, UFC Vegas 77 has the most uninteresting matchups. Dana must have plaans to make Holm vs Pena soon for the vacant.
There was a rumor about Rousey coming back to UFC which I guess is also part of Dana's plan for the women's division.

I say Woodburn is a newcomer because he is far from comparable to Nickal, anyone who really follows UFC and MMA developments would have guessed from the start that Woodburn would be rendered helpless against Nickal.
Everything has been proven that Nickal is indeed a capable and strong fighter so that next time Woodburn should be able to have a better decision so as not to suffer the same defeat.

I replayed a few times when Nickal threw a shot that knocked Woodburn to the ground because it was such a spectacular shot.
The point is that Nickal really put out the strength in his grip so that it could shoot like a bullet through steel.

They are really something when it comes to their own words I don't know if this is really gonna happen but considering their coaches are great UFC fighters, surely the fight won't become boring like just another celebrity fight we have seen on the internet. But one thing for sure is, they are not doing this for nothing because we all know that businessmen always have it all planned before they even have some fuss on social media. they probably cooking something in the process while making these noises all over the internet right now, maybe just some kind of promotion for Zuck's new social media called Thread.

Both fighters are from the Africa Origin, Adesayan is from Nigeria a Yoruba tribe, he speaks the yoruba language, he visit and has given helping hands in Nigeria too.  lets not argue much about their Origin, Dricus Da is from South Africa, in South Africa we have the black and white race, let the skin colour no bother you.

in Africa, Nigeria as the giant of Africa is being jealous by the South Africa, they feel their deserve to be call the giant of Africa than Nigeria. this match between the two brothers will turn to a political ideal war. in Nigeria people are mobilizing funds to be at the stage enmass to support Adesanya.  it will be very interesting match. looking forward for it.

I just watched the replay and it was an epic win for Bo Nickal, well Val Woodburn is not a push over fighter, he surely has the power to knockout his opponent and and durability to withstand punches but against Bo Nickal it was a surprising win for Nickal actually, but surely I haven't got interest in betting for that fight because I really don't have any insight about Woodburn, but I never expect Bo Nickal could have a great knockout win againt Woodburn,


I am still confused about Dricus Du Plessis Nationality but that is what it is he is a African, I really though at 1st that he is an American, because of the color of his skin, but I think I will stop there many would call me a racist for getting into the color of his skin and Israel Adesanya is a New Zeland, Nigerian, that for sure many in South Africa is a fan of Israel Adesanya but still because Du Plessis is a African they are now torn between the two, well if there are something like that and it is from my country and his opponent will be my favorite fighter I will also be torn between the two,


Like I said Woodburn is not a push over for me he got the solid strength of a Heavyweight fighter but when it comes to technique, skills and technicality on the fight Bo Nickal is up for grabs for sure well Val Woodburn is going on Bo Nickal without hesitation because this is a ranking fight for him but he surely underestimated Nickal for thinking he is only a run on the mill fighter,

That is not because Woodburn is a newcomer, but because Nickal is on another level. At first, Woodburn agreed to jump in the fight card on a very short notice. Second, Nickal had so many wrestling fights in the past and ncaa awards, that he can allow himself to fight so risky against an opponent as Woodburn. Even if Woodburn countered Nickals punches and daze hin, Nickal would anyway move fight to the ground and choke him.

I saw a picture of Mark Zuckerberg training with Izzy. It sure seems like Mark is really pushing this MMA training seriously. I’m not sure Elon understands the weight of what he’s up against. I’m no fan of the Zuck by any means, but he’s clearly in good shape and is putting the work in with some of the best in the sport. I think that effort is being underestimated.

That's pretty hilarious because by the logic that Du Plessis cannot be African because of being white, Adesanya cannot be New Zealander. Not to mention that RSA, just like most (if not all) of sub-saharan countries was founded by whites and the vast majority of its black population immigrated into it.
It's also funny how Adesanya didn't have a problem performing under the Chinese flag at the beginning of his career, which makes him look like an absolute sell-out who only returned to calling himself Nigerian because it's a huge country with a huge audience.

After one or 2 more fights of Nickal I think he could already get a title shot if Dana gives him a fast track. It's too soon but he already said he wants to fight Khamzat and Adesanya.


Dricus looking for support from African people while Adesanya doesn't need much to ask because they can tell he is from Africa by the color of his skin. Dricus point is that he is born in Africa and currently resides in Africa unlike those who claimed to fight for Africa. It feels like it will be a political issue soon.

African fans of UFC has never been this confused, the continent is divided already, all the sport stations on radio in  Nigeria are all debating about the Dricus and Israel Adesayan crash, after Dricus beats Robert W. to qualified to fight his Africa brother for the middle belt champion. @Israel Adesayan the champion, both of them are Africans regardless whats they said in the ring to each other, we are rooting for both of them to succeed.

whosever, wins in this encounter no matter much to Africans, we just want to watch two brothers fighting dirty for the title, and would support the winner.

Nickal finished the fight in a very epic way of fighting, he managed to knock Woodburn down with just a very hard punch.
The victory has added to the record winning streak he got, this fight is proof that Woodburn is just a newcomer who is not on par with Nickal.
We were all amazed by Nickal's victory because it only took 38 seconds to knock Woodburn down and lose by TKO.

^  Yup, the only value line there was Nickal via KO/TKO at 3.05.  It had a better chance in real time than on paper as Val Woodburn took the fight on short notice.  I hope Nickal's next fight will be vs a grappler with some striking like Caio Borralho.  That would be a sweet match up.  

As for Moreno, don't know why a lot of folks were so confident in him like he was some sort of solid pressure based fighter.  He isn't.  Anyway, don't know if I want to see a rematch.  I'd rather see Pantoja vs Albazi.

Here a couple of replays to watch for our banger main event this weekend.
