Did YouTuber Adin Ross Just Leak Kamaru Usman vs. Khamzat Chimaev for UFC 294?
Popular social media star Adin Ross may have just leaked a pivotal clash for UFC 294.
It's no secret that former UFC Welterweight Champion Kamaru Usman and Khamzat Chimaev have been clamoring to fight one another. At first, UFC President Dana White was opposed to the idea simply because Usman wanted the bout contested at a catchweight. The UFC boss seems far more open to the idea if the fight takes place at either welterweight or middleweight.

During a recent live stream, Ross claimed to have knowledge that the fight is on for October 21 in Abu Dhabi, which will be the date and location for UFC 294. Ross had a shocked looked on his face when he realized that what he apparently knew hadn't been made public.
"Usman and Chimaev," Ross said. "Like damn bro, October 21st. Y'all didn't know that, you casuals? Oh, wait. Did I just ..."
Ross covered his face in disbelief that he "leaked" the fight. Of course, fight fans will be taking this with a grain of salt. After all, Ross isn't exactly known for breaking fight news, but he is well-connected to many celebrities.
The popular YouTuber and TikToker was stunned to know that his viewers legitimately didn't know about the fight.
"Bro, on God y'all had no idea? No s***, bro," Ross said. "Y'all would've spammed it, bro when I asked you guys 30 f***ing times."
It'll be interesting to see if the UFC brass addresses Ross' supposed "leak." For now, we'll just throw this one in the rumor bin.
