Daniel Cormier says his account was hacked after fake Eric Trump betting tweet appears
UFC Hall of Famer Daniel Cormier reported that a screenshot of a private conversation with Eric Trump, in which the Trump son allegedly asked about betting on UFC fights, briefly appeared on Cormier's verified social‑media account before being deleted. Cormier told reporters he was hacked and that the messages were fabricated; Eric Trump also denied any such exchange, suggesting the images were created with artificial intelligence. Journalists confirmed they saw the post live for a short period, fueling speculation ahead of the White House‑hosted UFC Freedom 250 event. The incident has revived concerns about betting integrity in mixed‑martial‑arts, although no evidence of wrongdoing has emerged.
