Payton Talbott is one of the most confident young fighters on the UFC roster today, but what he recently did to turn down an invitation to join Adin Ross\u2019 popular stream is downright wild.<\/p>\n
Heading into 2026, there aren\u2019t too many UFC prospects who possess more star potential than that of Talbott. While the 27-year-old still has a lot to prove in a crowded bantamweight division he\u2019s looked like the real deal so far. With a 4-1 UFC record and a fan-friendly fighting style, there\u2019s no reason Talbott can\u2019t fight his way into the division\u2019s top 10 next year, especially if he beats Henry Cejudo at UFC 323<\/a> this December.<\/p>\n With that type of potential and notable social media following, Talbott is a sought after UFC fighter when it comes to media appearances. That\u2019s probably why Ross attempted to get the rising UFC star to join his steam. Unfortunately for Ross, things didn\u2019t go exactly as planned and he got way more than he bargained for.<\/p>\n According to Ross, Talbott declined an invitation to join his stream by sending him a private photo of his balls. Making matters more uncomfortable for Ross, Talbott followed up his photo with a \u201cstream these nuts\u201d troll job. It will surely become a funny story for Ross to tell for years to come, but a moment he\u2019d probably rather forget all together.<\/p>\n \u201cI asked Payton Talbott to come on the stream and he sent me a picture of his balls,\u201d claims Ross. \u201cI swear to god. He said, \u2018Stream these nuts.\u2019<\/p>\n \u201cI like Payton as a fighter, but do you think he hates me?\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Payton Talbott is one of the most confident young fighters on the UFC roster today, but what he…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":269735,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[444],"tags":[49,48,641,33601,638,82,702],"class_list":["post-269734","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-mma","tag-ca","tag-canada","tag-fighting","tag-latest-ufc-mma-news","tag-mma","tag-sports","tag-ufc-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/269734","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=269734"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/269734\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/269735"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=269734"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=269734"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=269734"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
