On Tuesday afternoon, insider X account @WrestleVotes reported that WWE planned to move their Orlando-based Performance Center to Las Vegas. Obviously, this shocked fans, considering that the Performance Center has been in Florida for over a decade. However, Fightful Select has now shot down this story, claiming this announcement hasn’t been made, and their sources at the Performance Center were never informed. When it was first reported, it did seem plausible that TKO would want to combine the WWE Performance Center and the UFC Performance Institute in Nevada for cost-saving reasons. Yet, it looks like @WrestleVotes has been fed false information, although it should be noted that they stand by their initial report as of writing.

Aljamain Sterling compares UFC bantamweight champion Sean O'Malley’s rise in popularity to Jake Paul’s.
Sterling lost his bantamweight title to O’Malley (17-1 MMA, 10-1 UFC) by knockout at UFC 292. The title loss came less than four months after Sterling defeated Henry Cejudo in a five-round battle at UFC 288.

In 1996, the pair were locked into a ten-round fight co-featured by the James Toney vs Montell Griffin rematch. Ward stood to earn a career-high six-figure payday until Chavez was forced out of the event with only days remaining until the HBO battle.
