Matt Mitrione blev nyligen avstängd efter sina uttalanden om fightern Fallon Fox, något som skapat en debatt i MMA-världen. Nu uttalar sig UFC:s VD Lorenzo Fertitta om fallet, så här sade han via ”MMA Torch”:
Whatever your thoughts are on the whole transgender issue, I’ve listened to [Mitrione’s comments on ’MMA Hour’] and in my opinion, it came off as a bit mean-spirited, and is something I think warranted review.
Obviously, this is not the easiest issue and a lot of people are questioning both sides of this thing. A fair debate and discussion of the issue should be allowed. But when you call her disgusting, and Buffalo Bill, that’s another matter. It warrants review.
I think it’s the same thing the NFL would look at and the same thing that any professional organization that is at the level we’re at would at least take a look at.
Hur länge avstängningen kommer gälla, återstår att se.
