Yahoo Sports Tai Tuivasa hits back at critics ahead of UFC 305: ‘Keep your opinions to yourself’
UFC heavyweight slugger Tai Tuivasa has put his doubters on blast.
Tuivasa (14-7 MMA, 8-7 UFC) will look to snap a four-fight losing skid when he takes on Jairzinho Rozenstruik (14-5 MMA, 8-5 UFC) in a heavyweight bout at UFC 305 on Aug. 17 from RAC Arena in Perth, Australia (pay-per-view, ESPN, ESPN+).
After amassing a five-fight winning streak, including a knockout of former title challenger Derrick Lewis, Tuivasa has been finished in his past four fights. He’s been hearing it from fans online, which has irked him greatly. “Bam Bam” decided to mock one particular fan for giving his insight on what he needs to do to win.
“THIS IS 90% OF THE C*NTS IN MY COMMENTS AND DMS TELLING ME HOW TO FIGHT
I FIGHT THE TOP FIGHTERS IN THE WORLD UNLESS YOU ARE ONE OF THEM OR HAVE DONE IT BEFORE. KEEP YOUR OPINIONS TO YOURSELF.”
