Paddy Pimblett Says White House Card Isn’t Worth It Without Full Support Crew

Pimblett downplayed fighting on a potential Donald Trump-backed White House card in June-July 2026, saying the setting wouldn’t outweigh who can attend. “I wouldn’t be able to have all my friends and family there,” he explained. “I wouldn’t want to leave anyone out.” The UFC is yet to announce the historic card. Meanwhile, #5 lightweight Pimblett fights Gaethje this Saturday.

Chase DeMoor Claims He Needs Only Weeks in Dagestan Camp to Beat Jon Jones

“2-3 weeks in Dagestan. I’ll stop Jon Jones,” Misfits heavyweight champ DeMoor (5-2-1) claimed after beating Andrew Tate. DeMoor has fought influencers, not elite talent, and big step-ups can end badly, as Jake Paul’s loss to Anthony Joshua showed.
