Mickey Gall and Mason Jones released by the UFC, Gall denies: “Don’t believe everything you read.”

The UFC has said goodbye to Mickey Gall and Mason Jones. However, the US-born Gall has taken to Instagram to deny this. The Welsh fighter Mason Jones on Twitter said that he will take some fights outside of the organization but will be back. Upon hearing the news of his release from the UFC, Gall […]

Upon hearing the news of his release from the UFC, Gall on Instagram said:

“Don’t believe everything you read. I have NOT parted ways with the UFC. I did fight out my last contract and have not signed a new one yet. I grew up in the UFC and love the UFC. But I am keeping an open mind and all doors are open. I’m still young and very hungry. I will keep you all posted trust me.”

Mickey Gall had a 6-5 record in the UFC since making his debut in 2016. Along the way, he has defeated fighters such as Mike Jackson, CM Punk, and Sage Northcutt. The 30-year-old welterweight sounds as though he is still highly interested in competing within the UFC.

‘The Dragon’ Mason Jones, of Wales, is a fan favorite for good reason. While only having a 1-2-0 1 NC record in the organization, this 27-year-old lightweight fighter had some highly entertaining bouts against fighters such as Mike Davis and David Onama.

On Twitter, last week, ‘The Dragon’ explained that he will step away from the UFC but promises he will eventually be back. He explained:

“As most you know, I’ve fought my UFC contract out. I wont be re-signing with UFC this side of this year and may take some fights outside the org before returning to keep you all entertained.”

Mickey Gall and Mason Jones fan reaction

Some fans were surprised and disappointed with the release of these two MMA fighters. Mickey Gall is on a two-fight losing streak however, ‘TheMMABulldog’ on Twitter was let down to see him go. This person Tweeted:

“How is a 6-5 record in the UFC worthy of being released? Two loss streak rather than the three that’s expected for a release? They doing [Mickey Gall] dirty here he’s got at the very least a recognisable name.”

Upon hearing the news of Mason Jones being let go from the organization, ‘RoyalzMMA’ explained the injustice. This person Tweeted:

“Mason had a war with Mile Davis, NC against Alan Patrick who he was destroying, win over Onama and a loss to a legit good fighter in Klein that isn’t very fair on him lol”

Every fighter has made weight ahead of UFC Vegas 44, including the event’s headliners, Rob Font and José Aldo.

UFC Vegas 44 takes place Saturday, December 4, 2021, from the UFC APEX in Las Vegas, Nevada. In the main event, Rob Font (#4) will battle José Aldo (#5). Font has candidly stated that he does not believe a win here would be enough for him to earn a title shot, yet he still expects that his jab and other tools in his arsenal will be enough to get the job done nonetheless.

On the contrary, Aldo has a “title shot or bust” mentality for the duration of his career, and this is just another chapter in that journey. With a victory here, Aldo would prefer a bout against TJ Dillashaw next before earning a second stab at the bantamweight championship.

In the co-main event, Rafael Fiziev will take on Brad Riddell. MMA News caught up with Fiziev prior to tomorrow’s battle. One of the things Fiziev had to say ahead of tomorrow’s contest is he views this fight as a must-win if he is to secure a strong new UFC contract. If he is victorious, he would have handed Riddell his first loss in the UFC.

Also competing on tomorrow’s card is ranked lightweights Jimmy Crute and Jamahal Hill. Hill told MMA News that he is moving on from the brutal outcome of his previous bout against Paul Craig. Tomorrow, the world will witness how the promising young light heavyweight rebounds.

Additionally, Brendan Allen will be taking on Chris Curtis, who is coming off a big knockout win over Phil Hawes at UFC 268. Allen spoke with MMA News about how he negotiated his own UFC contract ahead of this bout, which will be against the short-notice replacement Chris Curtis.

MMA News also caught up with Mickey Gall ahead of his main card bout against Alex Morono. Gall believes he is a bigger killer than “The Great White” and that the world will witness this for themselves tomorrow night.

The main card for UFC Vegas 44 begins at 10:00 PM ET, with the preliminary bouts starting at 7:00 PM. The entire card will be available on ESPN, ESPN+, and ESPN Deportes.

Mickey Gall: I’m A “Bigger Killer” Than Alex Morono

UFC welterweight Mickey Gall is confident he can take a step closer towards the 170-pound rankings when he faces Alex Morono this weekend.

UFC welterweight Mickey Gall is confident he can take a step closer towards the 170-pound rankings when he faces Alex Morono this weekend.

Since victories over Mike Jackson, CM Punk, and Sage Northcutt got him off to a 3-0 start in the UFC and established himself as one of the most promising prospects in the promotion, Gall has been unable to carry forward any momentum, trading wins and losses since 2017.

In-between victories over George Sullivan and Salim Touahri, the 29-year-old fell to setbacks against Randy Brown, Diego Sanchez, and Mike Perry. Having rebounded from his defeat to “Platinum” with an impressive submission win against Jordan Williams at UFC Vegas 32 in July, Gall will be looking to close 2021 out with a second consecutive triumph, something he hasn’t managed in five years.

If he’s to succeed in doing so, he’ll have to get past welterweight mainstay Morono at UFC Vegas 44 this Saturday. Ahead of their prelim clash, Gall spoke exclusively to MMA News’ James Lynch.

Discussing his 10th opponent in the UFC, Gall admitted that Morono, who’s fought 14 times since 2016 and boasts wins over Donald Cerrone and Max Griffin, is an unassuming threat, but a dangerous foe nonetheless. Despite that, Gall believes he boasts the superior killer instinct.

“He’s a tough dude, man. He’s very, he’s scrappy, he’s tough. I knew I had to come correct to this fight, and I did that… He’s one of those guys like, he doesn’t look like a killer, but he’s definitely a killer. So am I. I believe I’m a badder killer and a bigger killer. I feel real good about the fight.”

When asked for his prediction, Gall told MMA News he’s capable of having his hand raised through multiple routes, be it knockout or submission. Either way, he expects to deal damage come December 4.

“I see me bashing my bones into his skull; cracking him with big, heavy shots, concussive blows. I could submit him, I could knock him out. Wherever the fight goes, I’m just gonna go in there and be me; just do what I do.”

Gall Claims He’s Had His “Best Fight Camp” Ahead Of Morono Clash

Despite coming up against an experienced veteran who’s riding a two-fight winning streak, Mickey Gall is clearly confident he’ll get the job done on fight night. The 29-year-old’s self-belief derives from a positive fight camp, which he described as the “best” he’s had in the UFC.

“Fight camp went well. Even if it didn’t, I’d probably tell you the same thing. But it really was, I think, my best one. I think I was able to peak, and like, do everything right. It’s just been great. My team around me; it’s been a homegrown like, good camp… We’ve been putting in some good, hard work, and I’m really proud of what we did as a team. The way I feel now is beautiful, everything’s great.”

Gall vs. Morono will be the second fight on the UFC Vegas 44 card, following a bantamweight contest between Louis Smolka and Vince Morales.

Having missed out on a bonus for his first-round stoppage win last time out, Gall will be hoping to leave the Apex with an extra $50,000. But with the likes of Rob Font, Jose Aldo, Rafael Fiziev, Alonzo Menifield, Manel Kape, Brendan Allen, and Jimmy Crute all in action, he’ll have to deliver a special performance versus Morono to make the bonus list.

Who do you think will have their hand raised at UFC Vegas 44, Mickey Gall or Alex Morono?

Mickey Gall Finishes Jordan Williams With First Round Rear-Naked Choke – UFC Vegas 32 Highlights

Grappling standout, Mickey Gall has turned in his fifth successful submission victory under the UFC’s banner — stopping prospect, Jordan Williams with an expertly applied rear-naked choke in the opening round of their UFC Vegas 32 preliminary clash. Gall, a Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu black belt under David Adiv improves to 7-3 professionally with his first round […]

Gall, a Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu black belt under David Adiv improves to 7-3 professionally with his first round stoppage win over Williams, following a unanimous decision defeat to Mike Perry at UFC Vegas 4 in June of last year.

The 29-year-old New Jersey native managed to grab Williams’ attention early with a stinging and stumbling right-hand shot, before attempting to wrap up a high-elbow guillotine attempt early.

Taking Williams’ back during a seated scramble later in the round, Gall patiently hand fought before eventually finding his way under the latter’s neck and prying him back to the canvas forcing the stoppage from referee, Herb Dean.

The stoppage win comes as Gall’s fifth submission success in the UFC following prior rear-naked choke triumphs against Mike Jackson, CM Punk, Sage Northcutt, and George Sullivan.
