“Hey… why do you talk about me? In two of your last three fights you went to sleep… Alex [Poatan] put you to sleep, but I'm going to put Alex to sleep and I believe that Jamahal hill will do the same to you. Your new name is Sleepy Jiri. Focus on your fight.” Ankalaev posted on 'X' (old twitter).

The answer came a day later Jiri Prochazka post a video, also on 'X', saying that both Jamahal and Magomed have 'shown nothing' in their last fights. The three involved in the exchange of barbs are the top-ranked in the light heavyweight category, Alex Poatán is champion.

Russian doesn't miss a beat

It doesn't matter the context, the place or those involved. Magomed Ankalev only thinks about Alex Poatán. Last Sunday (24), he called the Brazilian and Jon Jones in 'delicious desserts' at an MMA event in Russia. Previously, I had already suggested that Poatan is a 'fake indian' is planned dates for the confrontation with the champion, even in the month of Ramadan, even though he is Muslim. Now, he promises to put the belt holder to sleep.
