“Someone at UFC is getting fired” – Joe Rogan and Co. are embarrassed by Kendrick Lamar and Terrence Crawford’s blunder at UFC 306 Inside the Sphere

Valentina Shevchenko finally redeemed herself against Alexa Grasso at UFC Noche, defeating her by unanimous decision. The fighter celebrated his sweet victory with a dance, but what caught everyone's attention was a giggling blunder by Jon Anik. What could have been the blunder, you ask? Well, as the camera panned toward the stands, it was focused on the undefeated boxing superstar. Terrance Crawford but Anik thought he was someone else.

Who could Terrace Crawford be, Jon Anik thinks? It is none other than a popular rapper who won his diss battle against Drake, Kendrick Lamar. Well, it was a funny incident and the MMA community was completely blindsided by such a mistake. Former bantamweight champion Aljamain Sterling was one of the first to reach out to X to poke fun at the situation. He said: “Terrance Crawford has evolved into Kendrick Lamar.” Another fan on X said“Did they just list Bud Crawford as Kendrick Lamar?”

Te͏rence Crawford was spotted ringside at The Sphere, having previously attended an event across the street at T-Mobile Arena, where Canelo Alvarez scored a dominant victory over Edgar Berla͏nga, winning every round to defend his super middleweight world title. As the camera focused on Crawford and his South African partner Turki Alalshikh, Alalshikh was seen uttering the word “Canelo,” hinting at the possibility of setting up the highly anticipated superfight for next year.

The time when Kendrick Lamar used Terrance Crawford’s name on his diss track

The feud between Kendrick Lamar and Drake was one of the most tense to unfold in the entertainment world in the middle of the year. Their feud had been going on for years, but Lamar finally lashed out when Drake released his song Push-Up in April, in which he directly attacked Kendrick Lamar's height. The Canadian musician in this song mentioned that Lamar is the puppet of the music industry. This attack by Drake angered Kendrick Lamar, who remained silent for months.

In response, Lamar countered with the six-minute diss track “Euphoria”. In his diss track, Lamar made serious accusations against Drake. Kendrick Lamar emphasized that the Canadian rapper was a manipulator and a liar. Kendrick Lamar even went a step further and addressed the conflict with fellow rapper Terrance Thorton. In addition, Lamar even referred to Terrance Crawford in his diss track.

Part of his rap was: “I don't like it when you call Pharrell names; I'll inherit the fight for him / Yeah, fuck all the crowding, P. Let me see you hit a T / You better go at him again. You thinking about pushing me? / He's Terrence Thornton, I'm Terence Crawford, yeah, I hit feet.”
