Tj Dillashaw sågar UFC: Vi blir behandlade som anställda fast utan fördelar

T. J. Dillashaw

Den före detta bantamviktsmästaren TJ Dillashaw är inte nöjd med hur hans nuvarande arbetssituation ser ut i UFC. I den senaste avsnittet av podcasten ”Team Alpha Male´s Stud Show Radio” berättar Dillashaw om hur UFC behandlar sina anställda.

Så här säger Dillashaw i sin intervju:

They treat us like employees, but they don’t give us benefits like employees. It’s kind of crazy when you think about it. We have to tell them where we’re at at all times, so USADA can show up and drug test us. But we don’t get health benefits. It’s kind of crazy that we are controlled. Any time you have to tell work where you’re at and what you’re doing, that’s considered an employee, not a contractor. They can’t tell a subcontractor what to do and when to do it. So this whole drug-testing thing is kind of crazy and the way they’re making us wear Reebok and all this stuff we have to do. They’re treating us like employees, but not giving us the benefits of an employee

Dillashaw gick han sin senaste match på UFC 200 mot Raphael Assunção där han segrade via enhälligt domslut. Dillashaw fortsätter berätta om hur alla fighters fick reda på att UFC sålts i sista minuten:

With UFC, we’ve pretty much stayed in the dark as much as possible. They’re telling us they’re not selling the company when everyone knows they’re selling it. It’s public record, but they’re still trying to tell us they weren’t. They’re just going to wait for the last minute for everything for us to find out.  They’re trying to make us do things and we’re not employees. So it’s kind of crazy. Dana and Lorenzo and those guys aren’t dumb. They’re probably going to jump ship before any kind of fighter union happens or any kind of lawsuits happen or anything like that
