#3. Dillon Danis fires back at Lena The Plug for supporting Nina Agdal

Dillon Danis is set to take on Logan Paul in a boxing match later this year. Ahead of their clash, Danis has been targeting Paul's fiancee, Nina Agdal, as a ploy to get inside the head of 'The Maverick'.

'El Jefe' has released a huge number of pictures online of Agdal with previous boyfriends, including Leonardo DiCaprio, and he has garnered some criticism online.

"you’re pathetic. leave her alone."

Danis fired back with the following:

#1. Aljamain Sterling breaks down in tears while reflecting on the life of a fighter

Aljamain Sterling's championship reign was ended at UFC 292 following a second-round TKO loss to Sean O'Malley.

'Funk Master' was the most dominant champion the bantamweight division had ever seen. He would have been the first fighter to defend the belt four consecutive times had he defeated O'Malley.

Aljamain Sterling recently appeared on Bradley Martyn's Raw Talk, where he shared an emotional reflection on his career as a fighter. 'Funk Master' said:

"People only see the wins. They don't see all the other s**t... It was just like win or lose, it was one of those like I'm going to try to do this as best as I can."

He continued:

"I'm just happy I stuck with it and who would've thought almost 10 years later, seven years later, I'd be f**king a world champion, defended the belt three times, nine-fight win streak, fought all over the world, bought my mom a house. Life's good."
