Today’s feed had a little of everything: a former champ rage-posting about Washington, a Green Beret drafting a hacker wish list, a flyweight laughing at somebody named Manel, and two old heads celebrating a Wonderboy kick like it was their own pension check clearing. Here’s who said what, loudest first.
Sean Strickland
Strickland went straight at Kash Patel on X, writing, “Kash Patel is the weakest fuck on this planet. We went from a radical leftist to a slimy fuck that bends over for Trump everyday.” Then, in the same post, he pulled the emergency brake: “Ok I’m done bitching. Goodbye :)” That smiley face is doing heroic work. It’s the online version of flipping the table at Thanksgiving and then politely asking someone to pass the rolls. The post led the day with roughly 1,667 engagements, which tells you the Strickland politics channel still outdraws most fight cards.
Tim Kennedy
Kennedy took a different route into the political lane, addressing hackers directly on X. “To all of the hackers jacking up the infrastructure in the United States: Please leave the FAA, VA, and national parks alone,” he wrote, before asking them to “redirect all efforts toward the IRS, ATF, and any other agency that has been hiding files from the American people or going against the Constitution.” So Kennedy’s position is that cybercrime is fine as long as it has good taste in targets, and national parks are off limits. I respect a man who protects Yellowstone. Nearly 1,000 engagements on this one.

Joshua Van
Van’s entire post was “😂😂 chill Manel” with a link attached, and that’s all the source gives us. We don’t know what Manel said or did, only that it was funny enough for two crying-laughing emojis from a guy who clearly isn’t losing sleep over it. Flyweight fans will have their guesses about who Manel is. The best trash talk in the world sometimes runs about three words, and this one pulled about 731 engagements.

Kyoji Horiguchi
The fight-week post of the day belongs to Horiguchi, who wrote in Japanese that he’d arrived safely, that being back in Qatar after a year felt nostalgic, and that he’d handle his final adjustments before asking fans for their support next weekend. He quoted his earlier announcement of the matchup, which set him against Asu Almabaev at UFC Fight Night Qatar on Saturday, Nov. 21, local time. In that post he noted the fight lands exactly one year after his comeback fight, again in Qatar, and said he’s looking forward to facing Almabaev. He signed off in Japanese with a line that roughly translates to him promising to get it done. That’s a great fight to circle on the calendar.

Henry Cejudo
Cejudo kept it short and generous on X: “Beautiful kick from Wonderboy.” No puns, no cringe bit, no self-crowning. When Triple C goes four words without mentioning himself, you know the kick was legit.
Tim Elliott
Elliott, who knows a thing or two about hanging around this sport longer than people expect, also gave Stephen Thompson his flowers. He wrote on X that this one was a point for the olds and tagged Wonderboy with a congratulations. Between Elliott and Cejudo, the veterans’ group chat was clearly popping, and honestly, a vintage Wonderboy kick is the kind of thing that makes the over-35 crowd feel like their knees still work.

Kayla Harrison
Harrison posted a short mission statement with a link: “This is my day. This is my purpose. I’m not afraid to win.” The source doesn’t say what prompted it, so we won’t pretend to know. What we do know is that Harrison doesn’t post vibes for the sake of vibes, and that last line about not being afraid to win reads like somebody already thinking about the next time a cage door closes behind her.
