The conservative media outlet Daily Wire saw some drama recently as Candace Owens left due to a beef with Ben Shapiro. Both political commentators differed in their views on the conflict between Israel and Palestine, the alleged reason for the Owens leaving. UFC featherweight Bryce Mitchell has chimed in on the beef.

Mitchell was a recent guest on the TwinsPod with the Hodgetwins. The UFC featherweight made a lot of claims on the show about conspiracy theories and even blasted UFC commentator Joe Rogan for endorsing Charles Darwin‘s Theory of Evolution. However, Mithcell’s criticism of Rogan paled to that of Ben Shapiro.

Look, if you [Ben Shapiro] mess with Candace Owens, I promise you, if you lay one little greasy finger on Candace Owens, I'm going to beat your a**...I'm going to have the twins [Hodgetwins] with me. We're going to beat your a** because you messed with Candace Owens.

Bryce Mitchell’s criticism of Ben Shapiro is due to the latter’s unwavering support for Israel. Candace Owens has been extremely critical of the Israeli occupation of Palestine and the subsequent bombings after the October 7 attacks.

Owens wanted the US to stay out of foreign wars. Moreover, she wanted the US to focus on domestic problems rather than sending aid to every other country and not focusing on the Americans. Mitchell has the same views as Owens.

In his latest fight at UFC 296, Mitchell suffered a devastating loss to Josh Emmett. “Thug Nasty” had an unbeaten professional MMA record before he faced Ilia Topuria, who eventually became the champion. An unranked featherweight recently called out Mitchell, and the 11th-ranked featherweight has responded.

Sean Woodson won via unanimous decision against Alex Caceres. However, he had a tough outing against Caceres. Nonetheless, Woodson was confident in his octagon interview, stating him as the ‘Dark Horse’ of the division.

Woodson stated that he, his team, and his city knew that he would become the champion. At 6’2″, Woodson is tall for the division but has not yet had a signature victory. However, he has plans for it, as called out the 11th-ranked featherweight.

I just beat a top 15 ranked guy [Alex Caceres]...I feel like I should be top 15 next. Next, I want Bryce Mitchell.

Bryce Mithcell had no qualms about fighting an unranked fighter. The 11th-ranked featherweight, who watched Woodson’s fight with Caceres, responded to Woodson on social media.

Alright, when and where dude [Sean Woodson], when and where? I'm sitting here and watching this sh*t. I'm ready, I need some money, I'm ready to fight you. Tell me where?

The UFC will likely make the fight happen soon. However, some fight fans are against Mitchell, fighting soon after the brutal knockout he suffered at the hands of Josh Emmett.
