"I’m starting to doubt that’s his real page" - Fans laugh as Magomed Ankalaev goes after Khalil Rountree

Magomed Ankalaev has been on top of the world since defeating Alex Pereira for the UFC Light Heavyweight title, which the former champ had defended four times. Now, all eyes are on the 32-year-old new champion, but who is he looking at next?

In a recent tweet on X (formerly Twitter), Magomed Ankalaev took a jab at UFC light heavyweight rank 7, Khalil Rountree. He wrote, "Khalil bum tree upset I beat his daddy lets go Jamahal." Ankalaev’s instigation has left fans in stitches, now eagerly waiting to see if Rountree responds and sets up a potential fight.

Hilarious Fan Reactions to Magomed Ankalaev's tweet

Fans found Ankalaev's tweet highly amusing and quickly took to the internet to share their hilarious reactions.

"I’m starting to doubt that’s his real page," a fan wrote.

Given how serious Ankalaev sounds in interviews and how ferocious he is in the octagon, fans are hilariously in disbelief over his X posts, wondering if that's his real page or if he has hired a comedian to run his account.

"Take the phone away from Ali," said another.

This user has found a solution to stop Ankalaev from making such punk and trash-talking tweets - take away his phone. But who’s brave enough to snatch it from the new UFC Light Heavyweight champion?

"What does that even mean? 😭," another asked.

This is a question only Ankalaev might be able to answer. And if even he can't, we might need to hire linguists to decipher his tweet.

Reading Magomed Ankalaev's tweets going after other fighters and his hilarious choice of words, one can picture him snuggled in his bed, trash-talking people on the internet and feeling proud of delivering roasts that a 14-year-old would, as this user believes.

"Dana requested him to be more active on social media 😭🤣," a fan commented.

Well, whether you've been a fan or a hater of Magomed Ankalaev's tweets, you know exactly who to thank or blame - Dana White, the UFC CEO and President, who encouraged Ankalaev to be more active on social media in the first place.

"Trash talk -5000," expressed another.

It seems Ankalaev needs to work on his trash talk, at least according to this user. Calling Khalil Rountree "Bum Tree" might not make the fighter feel angry or threatened how Ankalaev may have intended.

Magomed Ankalaev seems unstoppable, already calling out fighters just days after dethroning the UFC light heavyweight champion. Fear the Ankalaev!
