Quick read
Ilia Topuria claims he went to sleep knowing he would fight Islam Makhachev at the White House event, but received a call hours before the announcement saying Makhachev was injured and he would face Gaethje instead. Islam Makhachev responded saying he's tired of hearing fabrications from Topuria and his team, stating he agreed to the White House fight but was told the next day that Ilia requested a huge fee and was denied. A fan commented on Makhachev's post noting it was 4 AM, to which Islam replied "Today it's not him," suggesting someone else manages his account. Meanwhile, Jorge Masvidal and Pifer both picked Strickland over Chimaev, with Masvidal calling Chimaev's style "sitting and smelling crotches."
