doesnt mean anything when ufc and abu dabi and others are known for social media manipulation. abu dabi should stick to this not manipulating social media and trying to get more power via UFC. UFC these days is a joke. without actual Tournaments. Mohhamed Ali, Tyson, Khabib, Islaam... stop using sports as a way to promote and get more power. sports make me sick these days. I dont mind if u guys have your own champions and hope. but dont manipulate social media with countless of promo accounts and using these legends just to egt more control. organize actual Tournaments where figthers earn their spots in abu dabi. that will give u respect. dont be like ufc who lost msot of tis credibility already. also u getting a lot of haters btw on itnernet because how u have been manipulating social media and trying to cotnrol many big fb group
