Ben Askren, a former Bellator and ONE champion and former UFC fighter, criticized UFC CEO Dana White. According to Askren, Dana would never give a title chance to a fighter he doesn’t like.
“I fucking hate it when Dana doesn’t give people he doesn’t like title shots. Because Merab Dvalishvili is on a 10-fight winning streak, and what streak is Belal Muhammad on? Michael Chandler came from Bellator, it seems, after a defeat... He won one fight in the UFC and fought for the belt! Because Dana liked him, right?” Askren said during an interview on Daniel Cormier’s YouTube channel.
