Jack Della Maddalena’s recent outburst against Ian Garry has shifted attention from his upcoming title shot against Belal Muhammad at UFC 315 to a brewing rivalry with Garry. Their feud intensified after Garry shared a video of his son offering Della Maddalena M&M’s during a challenging weight cut, which JDM later commented on, questioning the paternity of Garry’s son and expressing his dislike for M&M’s. This remark references Garry’s complicated family dynamics, involving his wife Layla Anna-Lee and her ex-husband Richard Cullen, who Garry has hired as his nutritionist to support his weight management.
As Della Maddalena prepares to face Muhammad, the pre-fight tension is palpable, especially given JDM’s undefeated streak and impressive knockout of Gilbert Burns in his last outing. Muhammad, aiming to reshape perceptions of himself with a decisive victory, has promised an extraordinary performance. Della Maddalena remains confident, stating that he would be embarrassed if Muhammad were to break him, asserting that the champion has yet to significantly finish any opponents. Should JDM win, he aims to defend his title against top contenders, including Garry, and possibly challenge lightweight champion Islam Makhachev in the future.
