Mickey Gall Takes Credit For The “Call-Out”, Says It’s All Him … And He’s Serious

UFC welterweight Mickey Gall is undefeated in his MMA career. 4-0, Gall has earned three wins within the UFC. Most recently, the fighter submitted Sage Northcutt at UFC on FOX 22. Now the 25-year-old has come forward to say that he believes he is responsible for the modern usage of “callouts.”

Taking to Instagram, Mickey Gall said:

“I changed MMA. More specifically the culture of MMA… For better or worse it’s a fact and I did it with ‘callouts.’ Since I burst on the scene calling ppl out my colleagues have followed suit. For the past year every other week, every fight card, every couple days on social media = CALLOUT.

“Every post fight interview NOW we are waitin for it (“who’s he gonna call out”, “he should call out blah blah blah”) … Champs r callin ppl out on IG. I get called out every few months I trailblazed that I shoulda trademarked it… GALLOUT™… But for real I love it! So do the fans… This is just the FIRST way I changed the game at the highest level. And I’m just getting started… More reveals to come Ya welcome.”

Mickey Gall will be facing Randy Brown at UFC 217 on Nov. 4 inside the Madison Square Garden Arena in New York. The fight will be featured on FS1 for the night’s preliminary card.
