🚨BREAKING: Ilia Topuria will defend his Lightweight Championship Belt for the first time against Justin Gaethje at #UFC323
The fight will be held at the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas on December 13th.
Dustin Poirier keeps it 💯 on why he's retiring at #UFC318.
"I don't want to disrespect it to squeeze out every paycheck I can get because I'm leaving a lot of money by walking away. I don't want this sport to retire me."

You may never witness another five minutes like this in MMA history. Every second of it—earned.
These five minutes of Dustin Poirier walking out of the cage one final time, to a Louisiana crowd that hadn’t moved, surrounded by family, fellow fighters, pro athletes, executives, and others waiting to congratulate him—were earned with blood, heartbreak, grit, and an unbreakable will.
This wasn’t just a retirement. It was a celebration of a man who gave everything to this sport of MMA.
Every ounce of himself. Every piece of his soul.
He never chose the easy path. He walked through fire every time.
Wins or losses—Dustin Poirier always showed up.
Always real. Always game. Always himself.
He leaves behind a legacy bigger than belts.
He leaves as the epitome of what it means to be a fighter.
Respect isn’t given in this sport. It’s earned.
And Dustin Poirier earned every second of it.
Few retirements in MMA leave behind a scene like this.
A moment where time stood still, and the sport gave its thanks.
Respect 🫡
I’ll never understand these guys hitting females. Especially world champion boxers and MMA fighters, you’re specifically taught to never hit ANYONE because of the damage you’re able to cause the average person and they hit THEIR WIVES?! Could never be me.
Gervonta Davis was arrested this morning on battery and domestic violence charges involving the mother of his children.
He’s accused of slapping her in the face and hitting the back of her head on Father’s Day.
We are now known, all throughout the world, as OCCUPIED AMERICA...But to everyone here in Colorado and all across our nation, I make you this vow: November 5th, 2024 will be LIBERATION DAY in America. I will rescue Aurora and every town that has been invaded and conquered—and we will put these vicious and bloodthirsty criminals in jail or kick them the hell OUT OF OUR COUNTRY.
In honor of Jocelyn Nungaray, Laken Riley, Rachel Morin, and all of the others that are dead and mortally wounded at the hands of migrants who should never have been allowed into our Country, I am announcing today that upon taking office, we will have an OPERATION AURORA at the Federal Level. To expedite removals of this savage gang, I will invoke the Alien Enemies Act of 1798 to target and dismantle every migrant criminal network operating on American Soil.
No person who has inflicted the violence and terror that Kamala Harris has inflicted on this community can EVER be allowed to become President of the United States!
