Fabricio Werdum wants to clear up Instagram joke with Dana White, hopes to get his job back with UFC network

Fabricio Werdum wants his job back with UFC Network, and in order to do that, he’s going to talk Instagram with UFC president Dana White.

Last year, the former UFC heavyweight champion was removed from his analyst position at UFC Network, the UFC’s channel for Latin America, and his play-by-play commentator role for the Spanish UFC broadcasts. The removal of Werdum’s television duties came after the Brazilian posted to Instagram an image of himself wearing a Reebok kit with the Nike logo photoshopped on top along with the caption, "I'm not generic, I'm Nike since childhood!
