The UFC legend, Jorge Masvidal, slammed Jon Jones, claiming that there is a greater chance that she would go to rehabilitation than a fight.

Masvidal also tipped Paddy Pimblett to defeat Justin Gaethji and Charles Oliveira, but believes that Liverpudlian must avoid Ilia Topuria.

He also criticized UFC for passing Cyril Gane’s title shot and ridiculed the conversation about Conor McGregor applying for the office.

Jorge Masvidal talked to Casinohawks, which offers the latest Online casinosIN He said:

  • Jon Jones has a better chance of rehabilitation than to fight again
  • Paddy Pimblett beats Justin Gaethje and Charles Oliveira – but not Ilia Topuria
  • Cyril Gane does not deserve a heavyweight shot
  • Conor McGregor would not be taken seriously if he applied for the office
  • Darren Till Beats Luke Rockhold in boxing – a different story in a cage
  • Jones vs aspinall in the White House is a fight – aspinall is now really terrifying
  • Jon Jones is strange that he doesn’t fight Tom Aspinall
  • I completely changed the jdm vs makhachev forecast

Jorge Masvidal: Jon Jones has a better chance of rehabilitation than to fight again, Paddy Pimblett defeats Gaethje and Oliveira, but not Topuria, Cyril Gane does not deserve a shot of the title, McGregor would not be taken seriously if he applied for office

Jon Jones has a better chance of rehabilitation than to fight again

“I have no idea (if Jon Jones comes back). I don’t really think so or not.

“Jon is a wild man and proven yes. I think that one day he could wake up and say:” I fight and I don’t care. ” Put everything aside and just go 100 miles per hour to get shape and fight.

“Because he did not look in the best shape when I saw him, as the shape of the fight, as usual. He certainly had to be found. Part of me thinks that 60% I think he is not fighting, you know?

“I don’t think he will come back. I think that more a chance that he is going to rehabilitation and the fuck stays there than fights.”

Paddy Pimblett beats Justin Gaethje and Charles Oliveira – but not Ilia Topuria

“At the beginning I saw Paddy, when he came in, I saw a lot of noise and other things and how the UFC pushes him, and he became lower and weaker opponents. When he had one or two fights, I really started to see his skills.

“And then suddenly he got the fight of Chandler, and I thought:” Man, I would earn some money on it. ” I put a lot of money on Paddy and Paddy f ***** that I paid.

“Paddy has enough gifts to become a champion. It’s just against who. I don’t think he does it against Ilia. He is not a guy. I have to forget about Ilia, because I think he can’t overtake him. And it will be bad on my legs.

“But can he defeat other guys? He could beat other guys. I think he can be ready for such guys like Justin Gaethje or Charles Oliveira. He can be ready for these guys. And I saw him beating these guys. But Ilia? I don’t think so now.”

Cyril Gane does not deserve a heavyweight shot

“There is never a man who has no one chance. We have two hands, two feet and I haven’t seen aspinall, which fights significantly offensive.

“I think that if he takes off Gane, the fight is over and I wouldn’t mind that he did.

“I am really disappointed with UFC because it is a fight for a heavyweight title. It just doesn’t make sense for me.

“There are other guys more deserve to be a title and it didn’t go on his way.”

Conor McGregor would not be taken seriously if he applied for the office

“I think that the way he is carried is simply not taken seriously, because you can simply tell him by watching him, this guy is here, he left later.

“We intend to office and then decide to do something completely different.”

Darren Till Beats Luke Rockhold in boxing – a different story in a cage

“I think that now, mind, mind, mental psyche, I think he doesn’t sway. He will close him.

“Till has a good size, brings great importance, impact and speed. I think he is a bit better boxer than Luke. Now, in MMA, it would be a completely different question.

“I think Luke has phenomenal foundations, decent removal and good kicks. But in a straightforward boxing I will give a good advantage.”

Jones vs aspinall in the White House is a fight – aspinall is now really terrifying

“Jon is retired. I saw something he said that he was coming back and that.

“If Jon is fighting, I just want to see him against Tom Aspinall. I don’t want to see him against anyone else. Seriously, I just want to see Tom Aspinall fought if he returns.

“Jon could defeat everyone, just like Tom could beat everyone now. Tom’s movement like lithe, like 155-er.

“Just very tight to his body – he has good speed. Great time. If someone can overcome him [Jones]- Maybe I’m leaning on Tom because Tom is really really terrifying.

“But I just have the impression that Jon can beat someone on the right night, you know? He could take someone, is it about how much Jon trained? Because we know that Tom will get up and bleeding every day. Does Jon do the same?

“Because if it is and has a year to prepare, Jon could also defeat everyone in the world. It would be one of the biggest fights and could not be better in the law of the White House. We have Tom Aspinall, who are heading against American. Come on July 4.”

Jon Jones is strange that he doesn’t fight Tom Aspinall

“It’s a bit strange [Jones not fighting Aspinall]. There is a time when everything you want to do is fight the best, and then there is the time when you want to download checks.

“I feel that maybe Jon is between them, because he had a belt and he thinks that maybe Aspinall is not worthy or anything else, that there is no distinction to fight him.

“But at the same time we could say that Shogun could tell Jon Jones. When Rashad Evans was wounded and Jon Jones came in. Shogun gave him a chance to become a star. “

I completely changed the jdm vs makhachev forecast

When Islam first moved up, I was very much for it and I really leaned towards JDM. But I watched more and more JDM tapes, and he does not have enough appreciation for a great athlete, which he is. Islam can take him off, but I think it will be complex to stop this guy.

“Now, when it comes to the Department of Sleeces and Stronging, JDM is in a different world compared to Islam. It will make Islam look bad on the legs, especially after the first round, in which they feel a bit, I think Maddalena can really, really tear Islam.

“But at the same time it seems to me that if Islam goes down early, I really think he could cause a lot of damage. But in general I rely now, when the fight is approaching and I saw more and more materials on Maddalena – I think he will do it.

Anthony Hernandez accuses Gregory Rodrigues of ‘cheating’ at UFC Sacramento

Anthony Hernandez accuses Gregory Rodrigues of ‘cheating’ at UFC Sacramento
Anthony
Hernandez is now on a two-fight skid in the
Ultimate Fighting Championship and he's accused his latest
opponent, Gregory
Rodrigues, of “cheating.â€

Rodrigues beat Hernandez by unanimous decision in a grueling
five-round bout at
UFC Sacramento. Both middleweights earned Fight of the Night
honors, but “Fluffy†has since accused Rodrigues of grabbing his
gloves during their grappling exchanges.

Hernandez claims Rodrigues repeatedly grabbed inside his gloves
during their Fight of the Night

While Hernandez praised “Robocop†for his toughness, he also
accused Rodrigues of grabbing his gloves as many as four times
during their fight to gain an advantage.

“I hit him a few times, I rocked his sh*t, he's a tough son of a
b*tch,†Hernandez said at the post-fight press conference. “I hit
him with everything and the kitchen sink, hit him with some hard
elbows, f*cker was cheating and grabbing the inside of my gloves
and I told [referee] Herb [Dean] that.â€

Hernandez even claims Rodrigues was warned after the alleged
infractions.

“I told f*cking Herb, ‘This motherf*cker grabbed my glove, like,
four times. Hey, he's grabbing my gloves,' and he told him, ‘Hey,
stop,'†Hernandez said. “But I mean, whatever. Don't take a point,
whatever. I guess people like to cheat, so it is what it is.â€

Rodrigues extended his win streak to four and called out Dricus Du
Plessis in his post-fight interview, while Hernandez will have
to regroup after picking up his second defeat.

Kai Stewart embracing 'Bad Guy' persona ahead of Fenway Park BKFC title fight

Kai Stewart embracing 'Bad Guy' persona ahead of Fenway Park BKFC title fight

Bare Knuckle FC featherweight champ Kai Stewart is expecting a cold reception from the Fenway Park crowd in his upcoming title defense.

Bare Knuckle FC 92 will be a history-making night for bare-knuckle fighting as some of the toughest combatants prepare to fight on the sacred grounds of Fenway Park in Boston. Despite entering BKFC 92 as the headlining champion, featherweight titleholder Kai Stewart will enter hostile territory against Massachusetts native Harry Gigliotti.

Stewart, one of the best pound-for-pound bare-knuckle fighters in the world, is also one of the polarizing sport's brightest young stars. The 26-year-old seldom puts out sluggish performances during his nine-fight unbeaten streak to begin his career.

Despite his status as one of BKFC's biggest stars, Stewart knows he's entering uncharted waters at BKFC 92 in Gigliotti's homecoming. For Stewart, he says he's embracing the pressure head-on as he plans to play the ‘heel' role.

Kai Stewart promises to spoil opponent's homecoming in BKFC title fight

During the latest episode of BetOnline‘s The Fight Guys podcast, Stewart promised to steal the spotlight in Boston this week before entering the BKFC ring.

“My biggest ‘claim to fame' was walking into Miami to the Cuban's hometown…we broke records, and I was in there flippin' everybody off,†Stewart began.

“I love being the heel, the bad guy. At the end of the day, I'm not friends with these guys – I'm going in there to fight. There's no place to be a ‘good guy' in fighting, especially in bare-knuckle. Now's the time when I'm going to be Boston's enemy number one after that press conference. I hope they have a second one, so I can talk even more. I have them firing in the chamber for everybody…

“Nobody's safe.â€

Stewart doesn't just hold beefs with BKFC fighters. Ahead of UFC bantamweight contender Aiemann Zahabi's fight at UFC Freedom 250, Stewart feuded with former UFC bantamweight champion Sean O'Malley in social media back-and-forths.

Anthony Hernandez earned a lot of respect at UFC Sacramento, says Dana White

UFC boss Dana White has praised Anthony Hernandez despite his recent defeat at UFC Sacramento last weekend.

In the main event of UFC Sacramento, Anthony Hernandez wasn't able to get himself back in the win column as he fell to a defeat against Gregory Rodrigues. It was a back and forth encounter, but it was evident quite early on that Hernandez was struggling with the leg kicks being thrown his way.

Despite that, he was able to fight through the pain, showing a great deal of heart to hang in there with Rodrigues, who would eventually go on to secure the victory.

In the post-fight press conference, however, Dana White was quick to praise Hernandez despite the loss.

White praises Hernandez after UFC Sacramento

“Tonight, his leg got busted up,†White said at the UFC Fight Night 285 post-fight press conference. “Realistically, most normal guys, that fight probably would have been over in the second round. But again, I think the crowd was firing him up tonight, and he showed a ton of heart, and this is one of those fights – especially in your home state, your hometown – you gain so much respect. You didn't win the fight, but you gained a lot of respect.â€

“The crowd was literally amazing here tonight,†White said. “It was absolutely awesome. There's a lot of spots that we've got to hit. COVID, we're still sort of recovering from that. There's a lot of places we haven't been. And I mean, Philly was just incredible last weekend, too. We haven't been there in a long time. But, yeah, Sacramento's fun, and it's a nice flight for us from Vegas, too.â€
