UFC Releases Statement On Matt Brown’s Controversial Comments

By BJPENN.COM News - January 9, 2014


Top UFC welterweight, Matt Brown put his foot in his mouth recently while debuting as a podcast host on his new show called Real Man Shit.

And it got “real” all right, boy did it ever.

While on the show Matt Brown stated that he didn’t really care for the UFC’s female division. The Ohio resident also stated that the athletes that make up those ranks should fight topless if he’s going to pay a cool $60 bucks to watch a pay-per-view.

Ouch!

Make no mistake about it, that’s not Kosher with 99% of us and the UFC came out with the following statement.

“Matt Brown has apologized for the comments made on his podcast, and we have addressed the matter with him. His comments don’t reflect the views of the UFC. There’s no place for discrimination within our organization at any level. The UFC is built on principles of respect, and any statements to the contrary are not acceptable.”
