Det är inte bara Wanderlei Silva som talar illa om UFC, även före detta titelhållaren Tito Ortiz har ett och annat att säga om organisationen. Ortiz tror nämligen att UFC kommer falla från insidan, och jämför företaget med Romarriket.
Detta hade Tito att säga, via ”MMAFighting”:
It’s just a matter of time. Rome crumbles from inside and that’s what they’re going to do. They’re going to crumble from inside. They’re their worst enemies. I could just sit back and nobody is gonna talk trash about Dana, talk trash about the UFC. I’ll let them do their own damage.
You just see the same stuff. It’s cookie cutter. The same stuff over and over. Now that Reebok has been a part of their sponsorship, it’s cookie cutter. Bellator has taken a step forward in giving the fans what they want to see and that’s exciting fights, not only in mixed martial arts and now kickboxing.
At the end of the day, us fighters, all we have is respect. If you’re a cutman, all you have is respect. We’re trying to feed our family. A company is making so much money. Cut us in on pieces of it. That business didn’t like to do that and that’s why I left. I wasn’t being respected. I wasn’t getting my piece of the pie.
Härnäst ser vi Ortiz kliva in i buren för att möta Liam McGeary, då de går match under ”Bellator: Dynamite” den 19 september.
