Update | Openly Gay TUF Fighter Not Actually Gay After All | “Gay Porn Past Was A Mistake”
So we ran a story here today that our buddies over at middleeasy.com dug up this afternoon.
The contents of such exposed one of the new cast members on “The Ultimate Fighter Live” on FX, Dakota Cochrane, as a gay porn star.
The story included edited photographic evidence and a decent amount of background information supporting the claim.
For the sake of being fair and just, the fighter/actor has stated that while yes, he may have completed multiple gay pornographic scenes in the past, that he is in fact a straight male. His past decisions haunt him, it was a mistake and he merely did it for the money.
If you missed our original report click HERE.
If you want to hear the news from Cochrane himself then head on over to page two for the video of his testimony.

LOLWUT. You’re straight, but you’ve taken some dudes meatstick up your ass? MakesSense.jpg
Doing gay porn and then not calling yourself gay is just weird.
I don’t like that I know this, but when men are strapped for cash and go into the porn business they make more money doing gay scenes than straight scenes.
A man having sex with another man is gay as hell get over it n quit trying to justify what he did
I love GSP but sometimes I wonder if he’s gay. I’ve never seen him with any women, I could be wrong but I could be right. BTW I’m not a GSP hater so please don’t give me shit for hating on GSP. I think GSP is a great fighter and a great champ, I just wonder if he’s gay or not and I’m sure I’m not the only one.
GSP is banging your mom
NICE.
nah man GSP has a video on the internet of nothing but him chasing girls and girls chasing him. The man’s getting poon.
Didn’t know that, I figured he’s kept from being married for good reason. Why settle down with one when you’ve can get a different hottie every night. I’ve just never seen him with a women at the fights and I’ve never seen any pictures of him with a girlfriend. My wife asked me if GSP was gay which made me wonder, when I googled it I couldn’t find anything on him having a girlfriend. Even if he did have one I’m sure he wouldn’t want it all over the media. He’s probably too busy training to settle down. GSP must be big pimpin in the Great White North.
We got to all be there for ( Run Forest Run ) … He was all excited when the news broke this morning on this dude being gay.. I mean the dude had like 60 of the 150 comments alone..calling this science and shit. This is going to just ruin his night so let’s just take it easy on the dude.. Hopefully run forest run doesn’t log on and this just passes him without him finding out.. Another broken heart on b.j.Penn .com
I hate GSP, but I don’t think he’s gay, he’s always sitting next to some blond when they show him watching the fights (during events he is spectating)
I just found an article where he was saying that the reason he doesn’t have a girlfriend is because he’s too busy with work.
GSP has tons of pics allover the internet with chicks, hot ones too. He was dating Arianny for a bit as well.
GSP never dated Arianny but I do agree that he’s a pimp.
Great news for all of us nice guys!.. I’m lying.
I wonder if Cheick Kongo is gay. I was reading an mma magazine where they referred to his significant other as his “partner,” whereas, other fighters who have been featured in that column have been asked about their wives.
I wonder how many MMA fighters are gay and just in the closet. After looking into it more I know that GSP isn’t gay, he’s mackin but keeping in on the low low.

GSP dancing with a woman at a club.
gay for pay.
Whats grosser than a gay in gay porn? A straight guy in gay porn
Can not agree with you more! If he was actually gay then I’d be like, meh whatever floats his boat. But the fact he did it and claims to be straight? I can’t accept that
I don’t always do gay porn, but when I do, I make sure to tell everyone I’m straight afterwards
Your the only one Mike. Lol But hey, we don’t judge if you like to think about another guy’s sausage and meatballs.
that just the kind of sick excuse some gay dude would come up with
…
As a fight fan I don’t care about his past. All I ask is, “Can he fight and does he have good sportsmanship? “
well said..who he sleeps with is between he, the consenting party and his conscience..
And the director, cameraman, makeup people, boom operator, caterer, Web site operator, and all its subscriber.
Haven’t you heard of “gay for pay”? Most gay porn actors are straight. It’s the only way to make money in the industry. I predicted this as soon as I saw the original story.
It would have been better for him to just go with the whole gay thing. Now there is all sorts of ammo for fighters to use against him mentally before fights.
Either they’ll get in his head or piss him off and he smashes everyone lol.
CALLED IT IN THE LAST POST!!!!
Gay for Pay
Build a thousand bridges, and suck 1 C0@#. To the erld your not a bridge builder, your a C0@$ sucker!!!
Ive seen a few of his fights, he never tries to pass anyones guard and seems to favor the triangle choke for some reason
gay porn is such a pain in the ass
I feel bad for this dude, he obviously made some poor decisions that will haunt him for the rest of his life. His wife and children are going to have to deal with this. Obviously if he does make it into the UFC, this is something that his opponents can use to constantly get into his head. Gay Porn ruins lives people!!!!
Sorry but there are other ways to make money. Choosing that path and however you want to defend it doesnt change anything. He was able to get it up.. and that says it all. I wouldnt want to see some other fighter dropping elbows and seeing blood in the mouth.. AIDS test or not.
lol i don’t even know why he is trying to bullshit us lol. Dude there is no such thing as gay for pay and if it is it is as rare as being struck by lightning. I don’t know why he has to deny it the worst part of it is is that he actually looks gay. i understand the concept of gay for pay but not straight guy is actually going to do it. i mean you have to take a dick in the ass.. you cant just take that unless you have some real anal experience and you cant just blow a guy and let him jizz in your mouth and eat his ass out….yeah im getting detailed he has to bone you in the ass and you have to say “oh yeah do me harder i love it big boy”…. no way a straight guy can do that… then let him eject into your mouth hole. sorry cochrane… you’re gay man. You just don’t have to think of it as a bad thing.
Watch enough gay porn?
HAHAHA seriously…How would you know all that Robert???
maybe he’s just taking the words/actions from regular straight people porn and just replacing the girl with a guy?
i’ll take him at his word. but i’ll still think about him hooking up wit dudes every time i see him.
umm ok dude. : just so you know that sounded gayer than a dick in the ear
I knew it. All the gay references you made were a sign.
i have no problem with gays…we have to love everyone no matter what at all costs! when you know your manhood…then you are secure in who you are…and gay bashing is not cool…one note! what about those kids who got hurt at Penn State University? would you call them gay? or would you say a monster was placed in their path and made them less then who they really are! many of those boys will grow up and destroy themselves! is it their fault? a very sensitve issue we have here…compassion is cool…bashing is not!
100% agree with you that it makes no difference whether a person is homo or hetero. But you cannot compare Penn State to something like this. Those were kids taken advantage of by an adult. They didn’t have a choice. This guy did. Not that his choice was a bad thing. Porn is a billion dollar industry and there is a lot of money to be paid doing it. The kids hurt in the Penn State debacle didn’t sign a contract for what they had to go through.
thurgood u are right! but you never know what made this kid deny himself…to make that film or films meant for a split second who he was didnt matter. what made this kid deny himself is the question. monsters come in all sizes…someone in his past could have affected his future that made him do that! and now we are discussing…our manhood…the value of it …this discussion is a good one….male sexual abuse is a huge issue espeically what took place with the catholic priest who were molesters and that monster at Penn State university….do you think those kids who are men now arent struggling from what that moster took from them?
Only Time will tell….
When Bruce buffer announces his name….
The FORMER gay for pay porn STARRRRRRRR
Dakota **** RAIN!!
Imma call him starburst bruddah kuz he a contrediction a straight guy in gay porn
Wow, is this for real? So dude was “Gay-For-Pay”. Yeah he’s never going to live that down. I mean, it be one thing if he was actually gay doing gay porn. It be one thing if he did straight porn. But to be straight and do gay porn? Wow, just wow. And evidently this isn’t all that uncommon in the porn industry. I’m just can’t wrap my head around giving and receiving oral or anal sex to another man, when you’re clearly not into it, just for a few stacks. Or maybe I just don’t want to wrap my head around it. Either way it should be interesing how this bit of info plays out live on the show.
I call bullshit on not being gay, I cant believe this guy has the nerve to tell us that he took dick up the tailpipe, and pushed some other guys shit in just for the money….are you shitting me? how much could he have made in the first place? unless we are talking in the millions range then hell no, i dont believe it.
dude you should have just gone with “I’m gay”
was the mob after this guy or something? how bad do you need money to do GAY porn?! you could chop my finger off any day.
please MMA fans and BJ Pen fans- lets not ride this guy too hard over this …. oops
He shouldnt mind if we ride him a little hard….well as long as we give him some money bwahahahah
I would respect him more if he was gay. Do not want to see him on TUF at all.
Little do people know that it’s not the things you do that make you gay, it’s the things you are that make you gay. It’s the same thing with alot of lesbian pornstars.
preach!
to me the penn nation took on a different sickening turn allowing this to go on! to me for one thing to bash gays but another to bring filth on this site knowing kids and youngsters want to see their mma stars….and now this! say goodbye to the last pure site where dreams suppose to come true…and now this debauchery! this is a joke!
Ya right he’s gay. No straight man would get a hard on to a naked dude
Lol that’s hilarious, imagine this dude is the next “Queen” I mean king of the UFC, lol “pound for pound champion”
Imagine if u could fight u gangster ha ha bruddah u make me laugh bitch
People are willing to do almost anything. It’s happened to the best of people. Well bad decisions.
this guy wouldn’t be the first gay! What about Nick Ring?
Dude, that’s what I was saying! Idk if that’s true though, he might just have had an effeminate voice. I wonder how many people said that about Mike Tyson though?
whoever did didn’t live haha
hahahaha
hahahha i always thoght nick ring was a faggot…but he ius secret faggit…but clearly gay
ONCE A FAGGOT, ALWAYS A FAGGOT. DON’T DROP THE SOAP TUF FIGHTERS.
If you get hard from another guy and keep it hard long enough to make porn then you are a ****ing faggot. Period.
No shit, I bet everyone wants him sent home first so they don’t have to roll with him. I wouldn’t want to.
there are many straight males in gay porn. they use pills to keep their dick hard.
Thats ****ed! I dunno how a man can do gay porn to start with. But to do gay porn when you’re STRAIGHT is literally straight ****ed!
dougie knows 1st hand lol.
R u serious, pills or no pills if you do gay porn you’re a homo. Period.
It’s actually quite common for men to get their start in porn by doing gay scenes. Peter North did gay porn for a few years before breaking into straight porn. He’s been banging the top female pornstars for decades now and is a multi-millionaire. People do crazy things for money.
I know, at the expense of dignity he gained wealth… as well as a new bung hole but I’m not judging.
I will then. anyone who’s willing to bang dudes when their NOT gay for money!? is a goof.
oh cool. (not) yeah he won’t get teased abt that much.
It’s a shame he isn’t gay… He could had the mental edge over all his homophobic opponents.
Ok so he’s not gay but he’s willing to do gay porn? I dunno, sounds pretty gay to me. Not sure how that gives him a mental edge though.
No one wants to roll on the ground with him…. Gay insecurities.
I think the fact that he’s already been bangin’ dudes and what not already puts him in that category. no one wants him to end up in their guard. but if I was sparring with Gina Carrano and I was in her guard, I’d having a raging boner! lol does that give me a mental edge or would it distract me from the fight?
I bet hes a great ground and pound fighter
lol’d
Shouldn’t that be “grind & pound”. Bet he has a mean Anaconda choke as well…….
SKyler661
best comment of the article!
He’s a “Rear Naked Choker”
Do you think he prefers a north/south choke or rear naked? Word of advice to the TUF contestants: DON’T LET HIM GET YOUR BACK!
Hahaha….lol..who knows maybe a triangle ..him the one caught in one.
3 of his 11 wins are from rear naked choke. LOL!
i think the actual sad part is that people giva a shit. atleast its not animals or kids. stop labeling people. holy shit this is why im an atheist.
fool
“If people are creeped out by men putting penis’ in each others buttholes, clearly there is no God.”
Solid logic there, I tell ya!
Hahaha, solid interpretation!
Holy shit if he and another tuf contestant get into an argument we know what they will say to him
wow BJ penn.com you obviously didnt read a single comment on yesterdays post about gay fighters..way to officially become the shittiest MMA site on the internet with your MTV style stories about fighters sexual preference…neither of these articles even indicated if this kid is any good…piss poor sports journalism at its finest
not to mention how pathetic you all are who talk badly about him because he did gay porn lol. im 100% sure you have all slept with someone you regret wether its male or female and you still expect that someone would roll/train with you if you walked into a gym cause your not there to **** people your there to train a sport. the fact that his sexual prefrence even matters just shows how shallow and pathetic the average person is
go eat a hamburger and choke on a cow dick.
This guy is an idiot. Thoroughly through and through. IDIOT
the funny part is that all these dudes freaking out would get their ass beat… before you post whatever shit you have to say, just realize he has some talent and would beat the **** out of you… maybe that would take you down a notch, he is a human being with the same tools as you only he is better at them than you… his interest has nothing to do with how he fights, get over it, yall sound like you are in kindergarden
whats pathetic is how many people hate on the miesha vs rousey fight but are on here supporting gay rights and shit. i knew all you haters were a bunch of fags.
Ok, since he says he is not gay, it will not be a hate crime when the other guys in the house make fun of him, right?
Its called “gay” porn. Not “two straight guys fukking each other” porn. If someone can pay you money to be gay, you’re gay.
Muy buen comentario el tuyo. Corto y conciso pero super claro. No hay que estar dando muchas vueltas para explicar ciertas cosas.
ill be lmao if this guy wins the show
Hopefully he’s not a lay n pray type fighter, or he will never escape the gay jokse
If you do GAY porn then guess what??? Your GAY!!! I dont care if you’ve gone from gay porn to straight porn, your GAY!
Haha wow someone is in denial. If he isn’t gay then he’s bisexual then. All I have to say is if you can get it up to a man and can keep it up to have sex with him im pretty sure you have to be gay. And like I said before this part even came out that they all say its for the $. Take your BS somewhere else nobody likes a liar. Im sure those faces in the pics he faked too…..
Hahahaha. Called it! Knew that headline of openly gay fighter would come back to haunt you.
hahaha impossible to get you dick hard if u not exiteds to fuk whatever you are fuking…even for 1 million dollar to fuk a guy a couldd not do it cuz my dick could not be hard …i wouild try but it impossible…this guy is just a liar now…whatever who cares he a faggot and wongt last long in trhe show…faggots are all ***** wimpos..that why they eat dick
It’s amazing how none of you have met him, know him and yet pass judgement on him. Who cares he did gay porn years and years ago. If this was a woman, you’d all want to see it and her talent wouldn’t be called into check. Dakota is a good fighter, a husband and a father. This forum is very irritating because it is obviously filled with a bunch of hypocrites! You don’t have anything at all in your past that might haunt you? Give him some credit, he’s made it further in this sport than any of you ever will. It’s easy to sit back and pass judgement, steping into the cage and putting your whole life story out there is a completely different thing all together. Grow up people. Stop hiding behind your keyboards and smart phones and do as much in this sport as he has, then and only then can you pass judgement. Another story on him that is a little better read.

Estoy totalmente de acuerdo con la explicaciòn que dàs sobre decisiones pasadas en la vida de DAKOTA. Todos sin excepcion tenemos muertos en nuestros placares, pero ¿sabès cual es el peor error?…”NEGARLO Y TRATAR DE JUSTIFICAR LA ACCIÒN CON LA TRISTE, DEBIL Y GASTADA EXPLICACIÒN: FUÈ EL PEOR ERROR DE MI VIDA”. ¿Porquè un error?…tomaste la desicion y punto. Usaste tu Cuerpo, tu Pene, tu Culo, tu Boca…”TODO TUYO SIN PEDIRLE PRESTADO NADA A NADIE”.
¿Necesitabas plata por el motivo que sea?…LA GANASTE HONRADAMENTE, SIN ROBAR, SIN ESTAFAR, SIN MENTIR, SIN SECUESTRAR, SIN DELINQUIR…¿Y?…Cuando hablàs abiertamente y afirmàs hechos de tu vida, no puede haber fantasmas que te persigan ni habladurias que te sigan dañando.
Que DAKOTA se afirme en la SOLIDES QUE DA LA VERDAD y comience una nueva vida…
Pero por favor: “NADA DE CONTINUAR DANDO LÀSTIMA Y HUMILLANDOTE CONQUE FUE EL PEOR ERROR DE MI VIDA”. Y el que lo quiera creer que lo crea…y el que no “HAYA ÊL”.
Abraqzos desde Argentina: KEVIN
Como se dise…WHAT ?????
He just basically said that what is really pathetic is the excuse he gave after he did it – ” Oh it was such a mistake” He did the dirty deed for what reason? Just admit to what you did and own up to it not give some lame pity party excuse. ( paraphrasing here…)
Lo que realmente me cuesta entender, es la explicaciòn estùpida y sin sentido que hace la mayoria: “HACER PORNO GAY FUE MI PEOR ERROR”. ¿Porquè decir eso para justificar desiciones tomadas en el pasado?…¿No es acaso mas sencillo, coherente y lògico decir:” SI, HICE PORNO GAY EN EL PASADO Y NO ME ARREPIENTO DE ESA DESICIÒN PORQUE LA MISMA ME DIÒ DE COMER, O ME PERMITIÒ SALIR DE UNA SITUACIÒN ANGUSTIOSA, O PUDE COSTEARME LOS ESTUDIOS UNIVERSITARIOS, O FUÈ DINERO GANADO CON EL CUAL HOY TENGO MI NEGOCIO PROPIO. ETC, ETC”. Porque en todo caso, que es lo peor que te pueden llegar a decir…¿CULO ROTO?…y sì “CULO ROTO PERO ES MI CULO Y CON ÈL GANÈ PLATA”.
La verdad siempre te hace el camino mas sencillo y facil. Y despues de haber hecho una declaraciòn asì, le cortàs a todos los demàs la posibilidad de cualquier insulto o habladurìa sobre tu vida pasada. Cuando todo sale a la luz ya no queda nada de que hablar y sobre esa base sòlida podès comenzar a reconstruir tu “nueva vida”.
Kevin was just saying that he should have just said that yes he did gay porn but he is letting that decision stand because thanks to his “busted butt” he was ” ballin’ ” !!! – “CULO ROTO PERO ES MI CULO Y CON ÈL GANÈ PLATA”. har har har. Hey, I only translated it.
Who cares?
this is dude is hilarious….”I’m so open minded it…” Please.
6:30 minutes says you want to talk about it bro;)
