Welcome to today's edition of Sportskeeda's daily MMA News Roundup, where we present the biggest UFC updates and other stories from the world of mixed martial arts.
In the latest issue, we talk about Jorge Masvidal's pre-trial hearing for sucker-punching Colby Covington being further pushed back, Sean O'Malley pranking people at the gas station, and more.
#3. Jorge Masvidal's pre-trial hearing pushed back nearly three months
Jorge Masvidal was set to appear for a trial hearing on September 12, which has now been pushed back to December 5.
At a pre-trial hearing Wednesday in Miami, Judge Zachary James of Florida's 11th Circuit Court granted a joint continuance. It was agreed upon by both the prosecution and defense on the basis of one of the officers present at the scene refusing to answer certain questions pertaining to the case.
A new pre-trial date has been set for November 17 before next month's trial.
Fans did not go easy on 'Gamebred' once the news broke and trolled him all over again for allegedly assaulting Covington from behind.

Masvidal entered a written not guilty plea to a single count of aggravated battery resulting in great bodily harm and criminal mischief. If found guilty, he could face up to 15 years in prison and/or a $10,000 fine for a second-degree felony.
#2. Fans are tired of watching Hasbulla with UFC fighters
Hasbulla Magomedov emerged as an internet sensation after his unlikely feud with Tajikistani YouTube singer Abdu Rozik. Ever since, he has been seen with several UFC fighters, including Khabib Nurmagomedov and, most recently, Alexander Volkanovski.
Although fans initially found it cute and wholesome, it seems like some of them are getting tired of all the Hasbulla content being pushed by MMA media and the UFC alike. They voiced their opinion on a video of Hasbulla smashing a burger in the featherweight champion's face.
Although Volkanovski was seen laughing it off, the once-favorite on social media is now being called "annoying" and "lame" by some. One even compared Hasbulla to Hans Molenkamp, the infamous Monster Energy executive known for clicking pictures with UFC fighters.

#1. Sean O'Malley gives away $1000 after pranking a man at a gas station
Sean O'Malley recently got together with YouTube prankster Juan Carlos Gonzalez, better known as ThatWasEpic, to prank people at a gas station.
The two pretended to tow away a man's car who left the vehicle to use the facilities, claiming that there's a new law where people cannot park at a gas station unless they are pumping gas. O'Malley introduced himself as Gonzalez's boss and called himself 'Peter' - an unmissable jibe at his next opponent, Petr Yan.
The victim of the prank soon recognized Gonzalez as the man he had "seen on YouTube," following which O'Malley handed him a $1000 bill.

The video also shows O'Malley's real-time reaction to Leon Edwards knocking Kamaru Usman out cold.
