UFC middleweight Marvin Vettori recently expressed his dismay at watching U.S. President Joe Biden trip and fall at the U.S. Air Force Academy graduation ceremony in Colorado.
The POTUS took a tumble while handing out diplomas to each of the 921 graduating cadets in El Paso County yesterday after reportedly tripping over a black sandbag on stage. The 80-year-old leader was promptly helped back up to his feet and sustained no injuries.
While many sympathized with the U.S. President, Marvin Vettori was unconcerned. The 29-year-old fired shots at Biden and his supporters with a vicious rant on Twitter, calling the president a "moribund puppet" and shaming those who voted him into power. Vettori wrote:

"I swear I don’t how people who voted for this moribund puppet can watch themself in the mirror every morning. And even tho is not as many as they said there is still plenty."
Marvin Vettori is set to face Jared Cannonier at UFC on ESPN 47 at the Apex facility in Las Vegas on June 17.
The No.3-ranked middleweight bounced back from his unanimous decision loss against Robert Whittaker at UFC Paris last year with a decisive win against Roman Dolidze at UFC 286. He is now 3-2 in his last five outings.
