“To be fair, we should both be deported. Let’s roll at @renzograciebjj blue basement, loser cuts up the green card. I’ll only use buggy chokes?”

“Hey Australia, this Craig Jones, please deport him. He makes guys lose. He’s not good for MMA. Jiu jitsu is not good for MMA. I think Jack Della Maddalena could’ve done so much better today if he tried to [get] back up, but this buggy choke and all that stuff didn’t work. And [Craig] talked a lot of sh*t too. He’s nobody. He’s a jiu jitsu guy who tries to be relevant using MMA guys”
