At the UFC Fight Night 235 tournament, which took place on the night of February 4 in Las Vegas, Themba Gorimbo finished Pete Rodriguez in 32 seconds. After this victory, Themba stated his desire to fight Shavkat Rakhmonov and promotional welterweight champion Leon Edwards. However, MMA fans did not appreciate these challenges and ridiculed the fighter.
“I like his confidence, but I don’t think it will happen.”
“What is he smoking?”
“The dude lost by stoppage to AJ Fletcher, beat Pete Rodriguez and now imagines he’s fighting for the title. There’s no way he’ll even get a rated opponent in his next fight.”
“We all like this guy, but it’s time for him to cool down.”
