Ryan Bader and Rashad Evans are scheduled to fight at UFC 192 in October, and the two are kicking the hype into high gear with some Twitter trash talk.
On Saturday, Bader tweeted about training for the fight. Evans took a humorous swipe at him by saying he was “wasting” his time by training.
@ryanbader @Powermmafitness Stop wasting your time! This won't help you! Only thing that will help you is not showing up. #imjustsayintho

Bader hit back by posting a photo of Evans looking somewhat overweight. He coupled that with a shot at Daniel Cormier, who is known for being rotund but vicious.

That led to responses from Evans and Cormier:
@ryanbader @dc_mma I can show up looking like that and still beat the breaks off you. Bader=easy work!

.@ryanbader @SugaRashadEvans really bader! U may wanna lay off me. U have bigger issues to worry bout. I guess we will never fight now!

Cormier is headlining the card and will face Alexander Gustafsson, while Bader and Evans are squaring off on the undercard.
