Finally, we will end this compilation with Arnold Allen, who gave his honest take on the timing of the UFC 304 which might have caught the entire fight community on fire. Let’s get started.

Sean O’Malley and Conor McGregor are clashing again

Sean O’Malley recently had a conversation on his YouTube handle where he showcased a study that stated that Ostarine can be transferred from one person to another through sweat. “So when Jeff Novitzky texted me and said, ‘The other day, check this out,’ I saw his name pop up and I had a heart attack. He sent me this article and said, ‘Look at this,’” claimed the fighter. It was later shared on X  and that drew the attention of Conor McGregor who came forward to add a laughing emoji.

‘The Notorious’ later deleted the tweet, however, it was too late as O’Malley took cognizance of the situation. The bantamweight champion took to his social media account to call out McGregor, “Miss the old Conor you fell off bud. Still a fan tho. I actually don’t care you are 1-4 in your last 5 I’m still excited to watch. Hope the toe is feeling better.”

He added, “Conor isn’t in anyone GOAT talk. Entertainment yes but skills, no. Has a really good left hand. Shit Cardio. Weak Jits. Decently athletic. Mentally weak. Drug addict needs rehab. 1-4 last 5 fights. Still a fan tho. Hope toe heals up.” Well, McGregor has yet to provide any answer to O’Malley. Let us move forward to a piece of news about UFC 306.

Charles Oliveira and Brian Ortega might throw hands at UFC Sphere

Charles Oliv͏eir͏a a͏nd Brian ͏Orte͏ga are th͏e bi͏ggest na͏mes in͏ th͏eir͏ division͏, and ͏news about thei͏r clash wou͏ld s͏et the stage for an e͏pic fight. ͏It͏͏ appears the UFC ͏has leake͏d info͏rmation͏ ab͏out this potential ͏matchup͏. A social media user on Reddit posted a recent leak by Almighty Fighting Championship which stated that a fight between Oliveira and Ortega is on the cards at UFC Sphere, “BREAKING: Charles Oliveira vs Brian Ortega has allegedly been signed for UFC 306 at The Sphere, in Las Vegas!”

Surprised? Well, Ortega has been planning to make a jump at the lightweight division for quite some time now, and after defeating Yair Rodriguez, he officially announced that he will be jumping divisions. Additionally, in an interview with MMAJunkie Ortega revealed that he is ready to fight in September, “We talked about fighting on September 14, at the Sphere, I said yes to it, they said yes to it and we all got excited and that was kind of in the works… Yes (we had a name), but I can’t say it because it might still happen and I hope it does.”

Well, a fight between these BJJ specialists would sell like hotcakes for the promotion. It must be noted that this news has yet to be verified by any credible source, so it is better to take it with a pinch of salt. Well, let us move on to Arnold Allen who has something to say about UFC 304 timings.

UFC 304 timings might be an issue for the fighters as per Arnold Allen

The UFC will finally be returning to Engl͏and after a year-long wait. UFC 304 will feature the top he͏avyweights of England facing off against their US counterparts to defend their titles. The event will take place ͏at͏ the newly integrated Co-Op Arena in Ma͏nchester, which can hol͏d͏ up to 20,000 people. However, there is a problem associated with͏ this event.

The event timings are adjusted as per the US timings. So what’s the problem with it? Well, now the prelims will start at 11 PM (3 PM PT). The Main Card will start at 3 AM (7 PM PT). Looking at the timings, English fighter Arnold Allen came forward to call out the management. “It’s shit, I thought it was shit. Um, I got the contract and obviously, I was like, yeah, awesome, I want to fight in the UK,” Allen reckoned while speaking on The MMA Hour.

He added, “I didn’t know it was like some fan leaked a thing and then asked me a message like, “Oh, what are your thoughts of fighting at like 2 a.m. or 3 a.m. or whatever?” I was like, yeah, I never want to do that.” The timings are odd for the fighters as well as the fans.
