What a nice event here in Tampere Finland 🇫🇮 @icecagefighting so organized good fights and sold out arena 15.000 people! Wow 🤩 @ufc should come to Finland 💯 %
Too on point not to share, “Aussie reply to Trump rant about NATO not being there for us.
Mate. You run a country with 600,000 homeless people sleeping on the street tonight. A country where 40% of adults can't cover a $400 emergency without borrowing money. A country where insulin costs more than a car payment and people are rationing it to survive. A country where medical debt is the number 1 cause of bankruptcy. A country where women are dying in hospital car parks because doctors are too scared of abortion laws to treat a miscarriage.
You lock up more of your own citizens than any nation on earth. More than China. More than Russia. More than North Korea. The land of the free has 2 million people in cages, and a quarter of them haven't even been convicted of anything. They're just too poor to make bail.
Your life expectancy is going backwards. You're the only developed nation where that's happening. Your infant mortality rate is worse than Cuba's. Your kids do active shooter drills between maths and English while you sell the gunmaker's stock to your mates.
Your minimum wage hasn't moved in 15 years. You've got teachers working 2 jobs and veterans sleeping under bridges and you just spent a trillion dollars flattening a country that didn't attack you.
And you’ve got a convicted felon, adjudicating raping, paedophile protecting, porn star shagging insurrectionist running the biggest dumpster fire war campaign since the Taliban thanked you very much for losing again.
And you're calling Greenland poorly run?
Greenland has universal healthcare. Free education. One of the lowest incarceration rates in the world. Nobody goes bankrupt there because they got sick. Nobody dies in a waiting room because their insurance said no.
"NATO wasn't there when we needed them." When exactly was that, champ? September 11? Because NATO invoked Article 5 for the first and only time in history FOR YOU. Soldiers from dozens of countries deployed, fought, bled, and died in Afghanistan FOR YOU. Australia wasn't even in NATO and we still showed up. For 20 years.
And you pulled out at 2am without telling anyone and left them to deal with the mess.
So maybe before you start calling other countries poorly run, have a look at your own backyard, you spray-tanned aluminium siding salesman. The only thing poorly run in this picture is your fucking mouth. Credit (borrowed from) Jim Scroggins - original author 📷 unknown”
Eddie Hearn says Tom Aspinall's UFC contract is "a f*cking disgrace" 😬
"I cannot believe the money he's on... By the time you've paid your tax and paid your team, there's no f*cking point in even fighting."

@FM_Szijjarto Serious attack on Hungary’s sovereignty… by Ukraine hitting infrastructure inside Russia?
So you’re just casually admitting we’re basically part of Russia already? 😂
Sorry, the logic in this post went on vacation to Moscow and forgot to come back.
Unfortunately I won’t be part of this next chapter.
I’ve spent almost 10 years working in esports, with a strong background in video production and photography. If you’re looking for someone with this background, feel free to reach out.
@DovySimuMMA Couple weeks ago he said he's got nothing to do with UFC matchmaking anymore and now says stuff like this😂 Would bet they tried to make it. Sadly it's not happening...
Justin Gaethje: “You got taller?”
Paddy Pimblett: “Everyone was talking about my posture yesterday.”
Justin Gaethje: “You looked like a question mark.”
😭😭😭
This is one of my favorite moments on the internet.
A YouTuber is walking around SpaceX, asking questions like a normal curious person who actually understands rockets.
He points something out, Elon Musk pauses, thinks about it, and goes: “Thanks, we’re going to fix that.”
That guy is Tim Dodd, a longtime space enthusiast who runs the Everyday Astronaut channel. He’s spent years studying and explaining how rockets work, so when he asked the question, it wasn’t random.
Elon later said it turned into one of the biggest improvements they made to Starship.
Just a reminder that deep interest, real curiosity, and actually learning a subject can put you in the room where things change.
🚨ALERT: In a bombshell revelation, top White House officials disclosed that the United States is finalizing a staggering $700 billion cash offer to buy Greenland outright from Denmark, plus $100,000 lump-sum payments to each of its ~57,000 residents—totaling nearly $706 billion.
Finnish President Stubb:
◾️ I think the DNA of Russia is still expansion and imperialism. And I think the driver of Putin is Russkiy Mir - Great Russia - which basically means one Russia, one language, one religion, and one leader. I think he still sees the collapse of the Soviet Union as a big travesty.
◾️ If I look at it from a Russian perspective, and if the Russians were honest with themselves, none of their strategic goals have succeeded.
What did Putin want? He wanted to take over Ukraine - he made Ukraine European. He wanted to split NATO - he actually got two additional members, Sweden and Finland. He wanted to split the transatlantic partnership. While someone might say there are cracks in it, I still believe, in the long run, it hasn't happened.
He wanted to split Europe - it's more united than ever. He wanted to keep defense expenditure down - we're now all going to 5%. So, things are not going his way.

Donut Labin Marko Lehtimäki haastattelussa USAn sanomalehdessä
”Olisimme vain tyhmiä mennä valehtelemaan koko maailman edessä, kun muutaman viikon kuluttua ihmiset avaavat näitä akkuja ja skannaavat näitä kennoja”, hän sanoi puhelinhaastattelussa The Postille. ”Meidän ei tarvitse mennä huijaamaan ihmisiä. ... Mikään asia, jonka sanoin videolla, ei ole minkäänlaista liioittelua. Se on fakta, ja ihmiset järkyttyvät.”
Islam Makhachev admits he was surprised by how easily he kept Jack Della Maddalena on the ground 😬
"Before me he fought Belal, who also has strong wrestling. Belal was taking him down, and Maddalena was good at getting back up after takedowns. But he'd always get up using the same move, the same reversal.
When I took him down and saw him try that same reversal on me, I was already prepared for it and defended it. That's when I realized he had nothing else besides that move.
I said to myself: 'That's it? You haven't learned anything else? You don't have any other skills to get back to your feet?'
That's when I understood he was going to be there for a long time."
