 UFC Conor McGregor has defeated Donald Cerrone in his highly anticipated comeback fight and it took him only 40 seconds to claim the victory.  The 31-year-old Irishman first broke the nose of Cerrone with his shoulder and dropped him with a high kick before striking him with several punches at the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas.  It was McGregor's first win since his defeat by Khabib Nurmagomedov in 2018, and the second fastest of his career. After his win, the professional mixed martial artist and boxer said: "I'm the first fighter in UFC history to secure a knockout victory at featherweight, lightweight and welterweight. I'm very, very happy. I'm very proud.  "I'm so happy. Who's going up and down divisions and knocking people out like that? I've etched my name in history once again."I like this weight division, I feel really good. I don't believe I'm there yet, though, I've still got some work to do to get back to where I was." The Irishman is expected to rake in a staggering $80 million from the fight.   Watch the moment he won the match below. Only took McGregor 40 seconds to make his return.No rust whatsoever. #UFC246(via xander_pappas/IG) pic.twitter.com/Z8UpOYNh7q— Bleacher Report (@BleacherReport) January 19, 2020The post UFC star Conor McGregor beats Donald Cerrone by TKO in 40 seconds (Photos/Video) appeared first on Linda Ikeji Blog.

Facebook on Saturday January 18, apologized over a technical error which translated Chinese leader Xi Jinping’s name from Burmese to English as “Mr Shithole”.  The error was pointed out on the Facebook page of Myanmar's leader Aung San Suu Kyi, in a post that recounted her meeting with Mr Xi during his state visit to Myanmar. The Asian leaders signed dozens of agreements, covering massive Beijing-backed infrastructure plans. Though it is not clear how long the error lasted, a quick check revealed that Google’s translation function did not show the same error. Facebook’s translation into English referred to Mr Xi as “Mr Sh*thole” six separate times in the post.  The translation read in parts;  “Mr Sh*thole, President of China, arrives at 4pm. “Consultant Daw Aung San Suu Kyi is friendly. And the president of China, Mr Sh*thole, signed a guest record of the house of representatives.”  However reacting to the error in a statement made available to The Independent, a Facebook spokesperson said they are doing everything to fix the error as quickly as possible.  The Facebook spokesperson said; “We are aware of an issue regarding Burmese to English translations on Facebook, and we’re doing everything we can to fix this as quickly as possible. “This issue is not a reflection of the way our products should work and we sincerely apologise for the offence this has caused.” It was further gathered that the Facebook system does not have President Xi Jinping’s name in its Burmese database which guessed the translation.  Facebook is blocked in mainland China, but it is not blocked in Hong Kong. Mainland companies advertise elsewhere on the platform, making China's Facebook the biggest for revenue after the United States. The post Facebook mistakenly calls Chinese leader 'Mr Shithole' appeared first on Linda Ikeji Blog.
