Rockhold: Dana White’s BS ‘narrative’ makes fans ‘hate on fighters’ that ask for proper pay

You can add Luke Rockhold to the growing list of disgruntled UFC fighters. The former middleweight champion sat down with MMA Junkie Radio recently to speak out against his current employers and how the UFC is no longer the “best option” for many of his fellow fighters.

I’d never close the door on anything. The paychecks are great elsewhere. UFC is not always the best option anymore. There are a few guys on top, but you’re still entering a big battle with these guys that it’s just not exactly a fair playing field.

When guys like Francis Ngannou are getting shelved for asking for his worth and they’re creating interim titles which is all bullshit.
