Cody McKenzie tog sig nyligen an Sam Stout vid ”UFC en FOX 9” i Sacramento, där Cody klev in i oktagonen med basketshorts på sig. Inte nog med att McKenzie och hans team glömt de riktiga shortsen på hotellet, så var domare Herb Dean den som fick ta bort prislappen:
Dana White har nu gått ut och tagit på sig ansvaret för incidenten, och detta var vad han hade att säga under presskonferensen:
How’d you like that one? That was fantastic, right? What that was, that was UFC amateur hour. We have a guy backstage who polices all the things, you know, when you got a guy going out there.
First of all, if it’s not bad enough that he’s going out there with basketball shorts on, how about he’s got the price tag still on the shorts during the fight? Yeah, it was pretty embarrassing. I don’t know. That’s one of the weirdest things I’ve ever seen, and it’s even weirder that we let it happen.
Maybe he was going to fight in his jeans and said, ‘Maybe I should get some shorts.’ I don’t know, man. Cody McKenzie is a strange dude, but it’s not Cody McKenzie’s fault that that happened tonight. That’s the UFC’s fault. Not to mention we’re here for a show on FOX and it’s pretty damn embarrassing.
Well, this is the first time something like this has happened. Like I said, I could not be more embarrassed by this than I am. It’s very, very embarrassing and very amateur. I don’t even know what to say. Yeah, we’re stupid. Yeah, I was pissed.
Vad som står på tur för McKenzie efter domslutsförlusten återstår att se, då han nu förlorat fyra av sina sex senaste matcher inne i oktagonen.
