Kenny Florian says Yair Rodriguez’ actions at UFC Mexico were in poor taste

“Keep your friends close, and your enemies closer.” - Kenny Florian

Kenny Florian, the quote machine himself, has finally given his long-awaited analysis of Yair Rodriguez controversial post-fight actions at UFC Mexico, and the UFC veteran turned analyst believes ‘El Pantera’ acted in ‘poor taste’.

Florians’ comments come after Rodriguez seemingly celebrated his underwhelming No Contest (NC) result against Jeremy Stephens after landing an eye poke on ‘Lil Heathen’ at 0:15 of the first round. The 26-year-old also briefly snapped at UFC commentator Michael Bisping and got into a backstage scuffle with Stephens at a hotel.
