Welcome to Midnight Mania!
Final Saturday (July 29, 2023), Bobby Inexperienced grew to become the sixth straight man to defeat Tony Ferguson at UFC 291, submitting the previous interim champion within the closing seconds of the third-round (watch highlights right here). “El Cucuy” began the combat nicely sufficient, scoring an early knockdown, however the harm rapidly constructed towards him en path to the arm triangle choke end.
There may be, nonetheless, a small little bit of controversy. Halfway by means of the primary, Inexperienced poked Ferguson within the eye. The previous interim champion believes that this second enormously affected the remainder of the combat, and he outright accused Inexperienced of dishonest in a post-fight Instagram caption.
Inexperienced addressed these allegations on a latest episode of The MMA Hour. The related clip will be seen above, however Inexperienced explains that he’s not going to debate with Ferguson, as a result of it’s pointless to argue with a “loopy” individual like “El Cucuy.”
“Tony stated that I deliberately poked him,” Inexperienced defined (by way of BloodyElbow). “There’s a story that I deliberately poked him, after which that threw his momentum off, after which from there the combat simply went my means. I disagree with that. I felt that I used to be doing a lot greater than that the complete combat.”
He later continued, “So what I’m saying is, that in the event you argue with a loopy man, you’re most likely loopy. So I’m not gonna argue with him … He’s loopy with that, however you possibly can’t argue with loopy. The opposite a part of it I really feel like is unhappy. I’m unhappy, as a result of it’s a mark on my physique of labor. It saddens me that he thinks it will go otherwise. It saddens me that now it places all this lack on my set of abilities. I really imagine that abilities pay the payments. I don’t have to cheat no guys.”
