It wouldn’t be a “Thug Nasty” fight week without an airhead rant.
No. 13 ranked Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) Featherweight Bryce Mitchell finally returns to action this weekend (Sat., Dec. 7, 2024) against Kron Gracie on the pay-per-view (PPV) main card of UFC 310, which goes down inside T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas, Nevada.
Mitchell has been relatively quiet since his fight was randomly announced last month, but that all changed today (Tues., Dec. 3, 2024) when he appeared on Michael Bisping’s podcast … and yes, he got unhinged (again)—this time on billionaire Elon Musk.
“That chip is the mark of the beast. I’m telling you, that is the type of technology that the anti-Christ is going to put in people — when you start getting these chips in the head, they’re going to monitor everything you buy, everything you sell,” Mitchell said. Basically, it’s going to be communism like the world has never seen. This technology is going to be so evil that it’s going to put all of the control of the world into the hands of one man.”
Mitchell is referencing Neuralink, Musk’s brain-computer interface (BCI) startup, which just “received approval from Health Canada to begin recruitment for its first clinical trial in the country,” according to Newsweek.
“I’m telling you, the future of technology is a few humans [using it] to control other humans. The Bible has said that for thousands of years, and now we’re seeing it,” Mitchell continued. “When you see a guy like Elon Musk putting chips in people’s brains, acting like he’s a doctor – his cars suck, he’s never been to space. He can’t go to space. He knows the Earth is flat. He’s a lying rat b—tard.”
“You know why he wants electric cars? These electric cars suck, and they’re gay. The reason he’s making electric cars is because he can shut your damn car off whenever you make a mean tweet. Now he owns Twitter. They’re going to get to the point where everything is so controlled that Elon Musk presses a button, and your car flies off a bridge at 200 mph, or you’re locked in it, or you just can’t start your car.
“You can’t do that with a 1997 Ford pickup truck, buddy,’ Mitchell concluded. “My ‘73 will run one of those pieces of s—t Tesla’s off the road and f—king crush it like a can of Coke – I’m just telling you those Teslas are pieces of sh—t just like he is.”
It’s only Tuesday, so expect another crazy rant at UFC 310 media day tomorrow.
