Ali Abdelaziz slams Barack Obama, reacts to Elon Musk

Ali Abdelaziz, renowned MMA manager of Khabib Nurmagomedov, Islam Makhachev, and other UFC stars, lashed out at Barack Obama's latest speech.

The former president recently spoke at the Democrat rally in Milwaukee, Wisconsin for Kamala Harris and commented on the importance of religious minority voters, especially Jewish and Muslim citizens. Obama highlighted Donald Trump's policy regarding restricted travel from several Islamic countries.

Elon Musk described Obama's remarks as a "calculated lie." Abdelaziz, a devout Trump supporter, reacted with his take on X:

"Obama needs to stop talking about Muslims. He bombed seven Muslim countries in his presidency; he's a fake and afraid and a liar."

Cage-side doctor explains Belal Muhammad's withdrawal from UFC 310

Belal Muhammad pulled out of his UFC 310 fight against Shavkat Rakhmonov due to a bone infection in his toes. He posted a video on social media of himself undergoing treatment for the infection.

Dr. Yared Vazquez, M.D., a cage-side/octagon doctor, weighed in on the UFC welterweight champion's condition on X, explaining the matter in detail:

"It all started with his toe, where Belal was diagnosed with a rare but serious condition called osteomyelitis. Osteomyelitis is a bone infection most commonly caused by bacteria. This infection can reach the bone through the bloodstream or a nearby injury. Once it takes hold, osteomyelitis creates intense inflammation and can cause severe pain, swelling, and even fever."
"In Belal's case, the infection was particularly risky because it affected his toe - a critical part of the foot for balance, movement, and of course, performance in high stakes fights," he added.

Joe Rogan talks immigrant theory with Democrat senator

Joe Rogan recently welcomed U.S. Senator John Fetterman of Pennsylvania to his podcast. The two talked about, among other things, the complex issue of undocumented immigration.

Rogan questioned the Democrat politician about whether the party had any ulterior motives behind their approach regarding the matter. The UFC commentator focused on the concerns surrounding the alleged "rigging" of swing states by providing new immigrants with resources and pushing them to vote for Democratic candidates.

Rogan said:

"The fear that a lot of people have is that this is a coordinated effort to take these people that you're allowing to come into the country. Then you're providing them with all sorts of services like food stamps and housing and setting them up and then providing a pathway to amnesty."
"Then you would have voters that would be significantly voting towards the Democrats because they're the people that enabled them to come into the country in the first place and provided them with those services. This is a big fear that people have and that you're rigging this system and that this will turn all these states into essentially locked blue like California is," he added.
