Daniel Cormier, a former UFC champion and commentator, becomes the focus of a viral social media controversy involving Eric Trump. Multiple reports say Cormier posted and then deleted screenshots of direct messages in which Trump allegedly asked Cormier whether any UFC events at the White House were “rigged” and what fights he could bet on. The screenshots depict Trump asking for specific guidance about “rigged” matchups. After the images circulated online, Cormier responds to the controversy, denying that the alleged conversation is accurate as presented in the viral posts. The reports characterize the matter as a dispute over whether such direct messages occurred and whether Cormier’s deleted posts reflect the true nature of the exchange. Across coverage, the key points are that Cormier initially shared the screenshots publicly before removing them, that the alleged request centers on “rigged” White House UFC fights and betting, and that Cormier later denies the viral claim about his communications with Trump.
