Quick read
Ilia Topuria claimed he was told he would fight Islam Makhachev at the White House event, only to receive a call hours before the announcement that Makhachev was injured and he would face Gaethje instead. Topuria questioned why Makhachev doesn't want to fight him. Makhachev responded that he agreed to the White House bout but was then told Topuria requested a huge fee and was denied, calling Topuria's version a lie. A fan jokingly told Makhachev to go to sleep at 4 AM, to which Makhachev replied it wasn't him posting. Meanwhile, Jorge Masvidal and Orion Cosce picked Sean Strickland over Khamzat Chimaev, with Masvidal mocking Chimaev's wrestling style.
