Mike Perry, a former UFC fighter, criticized the organization for their treatment of fighters.
āThe UFC chooses to fight whoever they want, whenever they want, damn it. They do whatever they want and no one can tell them anything. AndĀ itās annoying as hell. It's funny how the UFC tries to look like the damn NFL and NBA, but they don't act like it, damn it. They are still rude, disrespectful andĀ rich assholes who don't care aboutĀ the fighters risking their lives. They get in front of the media and say, āDo you know what the damn fighters go through?ā But at the same time, theyāre the ones trying to finish them off for the sake of crap,ā Perry was quoted as saying by the OverDogs Podcast.
