Bag check before UFC 315 ... fraud check after?
Jack Della Maddalena wants to fly his entire team to the upcoming UFC 315 pay-per-view (PPV) event on May 10 in Montreal. Unfortunately, the No. 5-ranked welterweight contender can't afford the expense on his current salary, which is why the Aussie started a fundraiser to help pay the bills.
Reigning 170-pound champion, Belal Muhammad, sounded ready to contribute to the cause — right up until Maddalena predicted a first-round finish.

Someone in the comments called him "Jack Delta Maddalena" (golf clap).
The 28 year-old Maddalena (17-2) scored his welterweight title shot when No. 2-ranked contender, Shavkat Rakhmonov, was felled by injury and forced to withdraw (more on that turn of events right here). It also prompted matchmakers to book this bout, which gave rise to a new and exciting title challenger.
But can any of them withstand the champ's "Canelo Hands?"
