A social media exchange between Barstool's Jersey Jerry and UFC lightweight fighter Matt "The Steamrolla" Frevola caught the attention of Barstool Sports founder Dave Portnoy, who intervened in the exchange.

After perennial featherweight contender Edson Barboza knocked out Billy Quarantillo in the co-main event of UFC Kansas City, Barstool's Jersey Jerry took to Twitter to troll Quarantillo, writing:

"Someone get 'em a GPS."

Frevola, however, took offense to the tweet and responded:

"Sh**ting your pants on the subway is the most memorable thing you’ve done in your life my man...chill out."

Jersey Jerry fired back, trying to ratio Frevola by questioning who he was. However, Barstool Sports founder Dave Portnoy stepped in to intervene, writing,

"Longtime Stoolie Jerry."
