Disgraced UFC fighter Bryce Mitchell has sparked concerns after going on a bizarre rant about ‘demons’ – two months on from his outrageous praise of Adolf Hitler.

Mitchell, who has spent seven years in the UFC after winning ‘The Ultimate Fighter’  reality series in 2018, sent shockwaves through the sporting world when he claimed the former Nazi leader was a ‘good guy’ and that the Holocaust never happened.

The 30-year-old featherweight also commended Hitler for trying to ‘purify’ Germany from ‘greedy Jews’ who were ‘destroying his country and turning them all into gays’ in an offensive tirade which was heavily criticized by UFC president Dana White.

And almost two months later, Mitchell has raised further questions over his mental state after claiming he is suffering from ‘demonic dreams’ in another disturbing outburst ahead of his fight against Jean Silva at UFC 314 next month.

‘Good morning, y’all,’ he said in a video message on Instagram. ‘I need all my Christian warriors to pray for me that I will have peaceful sleep. 

‘Every single night since the day before the press conference, I’ve had demonic dreams. Legions of demons are attacking me every single time I sleep, and not one time have I seen any peaceful sleep since that day.

‘These demons surround me, and they try to fight me and provoke me to anger. And then the dream will switch and they’ll send beautiful women, and they’re trying to get me to lust to cheat on my wife. 

‘Satan’s using two of my weaknesses to try to expose the evil in my own heart; which is anger and lust. However, where I am weak, the lord is strong. So please pray for me.’

Mitchell went on to claim that Silva is ‘possessed by a legion of demons’ while vowing to win their fight on April 12 ‘in the name of Jesus Christ.’

‘I’m not just fighting a man on April 12,’ he continued. ‘I’m fighting a man possessed by a legion of demons. 

‘When I simply said the name Jesus, he was provoked to maliciousness, and he started barking like a dog and chanting: ‘F you, f you, f you.’

‘Remember guys, the days of fighting for myself are long gone. I now fight for the name of the lord and the devil, he ain’t gonna waste his time trying to plague a loser. He knows that a victory for the lord is at hand. 

‘I will win this fight in the name of Jesus Christ. The man’s demons will be casted out of my presence and he will fall before me just as Goliath fell before King David.’

Silva fired back at Mitchell in light of his comments, writing on X: ‘Bryce, two things, these are not demons, it’s just you being afraid to face me and second about the beautiful women you have a hormone called testosterone and you probably have problems with it. 

Bryce, two things, these are not demons, it’s just you being afraid to face me and second about the beautiful women you have a hormone called testosterone and you probably have problems with it. Just be ready for April 12th, because I will be.

Dana White slammed  Mitchell after he described Adolf Hitler as a ‘good guy’ earlier this year

‘Just be ready for April 12th, because I will be.’

Mitchell is set to return to action in the UFC for the first time since his shocking remarks about Hitler and the Nazis earlier this year.

Dana White was one of many to condemn the fighter over his comments, branding them the most ‘dumb and ignorant’ he’s ever heard in a blistering assessment.

‘I’ve heard a lot of dumb and ignorant s*** said over the years, but this is probably the worst,’ the UFC boss admitted.

‘That’s the problem with the internet and social media. You provide a platform to a lot of dumb and ignorant people,’ he added.

‘We reached out to Bryce immediately when we read what he said, and let him know exactly how we felt about it. But what he said was beyond disgusting and he needs a real education on the facts surrounding Hitler and World War Two.’
