Burt Watson har under lång tid arbetat med fighters backstage, där han hjälpt till med bland annat invägningar innan matcherna och avgick tidigare i samband med UFC 184 i slutet av februari.
Nu har nya rykten gått om att hans avgång berodde på ett bråk med Ronda Rouseys team, där Dana White också skulle ha ställt sig på deras sida.
Det här kunde vi läsa på Twitter, via ”FrontRowBrian”:
UPDATE regarding @BurtWatson4real. Burt got into an argument with a member of Ronda’s entourage.

When Dana was made aware of argument between Burt &the member of Ronda’s entourage, Dana sided with Team Rousey. Burt was insulted and quit

I was told by 1 source that Ronda is the only 1 they’d cross Burt for. Burt took a lot of pride in what he did &didn’t like to be questioned

There was an ”incident” of sorts with Munoz but it was a separate incident and not serious compared to argument with Team Rousey.
