Hey everyone, I wanted to address Dana White’s comments from this past weekend, because the truth matters to me and the fans.
Dana, you were heated about why I’m not on the White House card, but let’s clear something up. My team and I were actually negotiating with the UFC for that fight. Real negotiations. I even came down from my original number, and what was I offered in return ? I was lowballed .
Yes, I have arthritis in my hip and it’s painful, but that doesn’t mean I can’t fight.
So let me get this straight, if I had accepted the lowball offer, suddenly my hip would be fine and I’d be on the White House card? That doesn’t make sense.
I even received stem cell treatment last week to get ready for the White House card, and training camp was scheduled to start today. I was preparing to be ready.
I understand business deals fall through sometimes, but going out publicly and saying things that aren’t true isn’t right.
After everything I’ve given to the UFC , the years, the title defenses, the fights , hearing that I’m “done” is disappointing. Especially when as recently as Friday UFC was calling me trying to get me on that White House card for a much lower number.
If the UFC truly feels like I’m done, then I respectfully ask to be released from my contract today.
No more spins, no more games.
Thank you to the real fans who know what’s up.
Bones out.
Deni Avdija says he’s fed up with the hate he receives for being from Israel, calls out the lack of education on the topic, and demands respect, saying those outside the Middle East shouldn’t speak on it
“You don’t have to love what I stand for or how I look, but if I’m a good player, give props. All this hate … for no reason. Like, I’m deciding things in the world. I’ll be honest: What do people expect me to do? This is my country, where I was born, where I grew up. I love my country; there are a lot of great things about my country. But obviously, not everyone is educated and knows what is going on, and that’s what pisses me off. Because if you are educated and know what is going on, it’s fine to say what you think and say who you think is right or wrong. But if you are not educated and you are not part of the Middle East, and you don’t understand how long this goes back and understand the consequences and everything … just don’t say anything.”

Deni Avdija says he’s willing to educate people in the U.S.
“Not everyone understands 100 % what is happening in Israel. We’re a very small country, and there are people who live in bubbles in their countries. Many are interested, and I always explain the whole situation properly, from the right and good side. I try to show reality as much as possible.”

NEW: Shark Tank’s Kevin O’Leary calls on Trump to withhold federal funding to California until Gov Newsom and Karen Bass are removed from office.
“I think every taxpayer in America, including those in California, would like to tie this aid to removing Newsom & Bass.”
“Part of the deal would be, not a dime, until those two are whacked from their jobs, immediately.”
Sources: UCLA is targeting veteran defensive line coach Jethro Franklin to be the school’s next defensive line coach. The deal has not been finalized, and Franklin, who is at Fresno State, is expected to coach through the Bulldogs’ bowl game.
