On GOOD FRIDAY my family’s Earth Angel went to be with GOD! Erikk was a miracle baby from the start. He wasn’t supposed to live past 3 yrs old. He made it to 32 yrs old. Erikk was such a blessing to my family and my sweet Mother who was his caregiver. He was nonverbal but spoke volumes with his resilience and sweet personality . Erikk helped mold me into the person I am today and I am forever grateful for him being in my life. You are FOREVER LOVED NEPHEW. 🫶🏽🙏🏾
I’m beyond proud of my Godson @devinsmythmma for his first fight back in 3 years. Devin came into this fight a big underdog but was determined to have his hand raised by any means necessary. He reignited his career with an incredible knock out.
I used to love to kick back and have a drink with the boys but now have completely lost interest

It’s always a great time working with Uncle @dinthomas & @phil_sports on @espnmma @espn. #ufc293 is gonna be a sneaky good card. Who do y’all got in the main (Izzy vs Strickland) co-main (Tuivasa vs Volkov) ?
