T.J. Brown: Kai Kamaka’s coach was ‘disrespectful’ following close call in UFC Vegas 25 fight

At UFC Vegas 25 on Saturday, T.J. Brown saw his hand raised for the first time as a UFC fighter, but it hasn’t all been good vibes since then.

In fact, immediately after the scorecards were read and Brown was declared the victor by split decision over Kai Kamaka after a hard-fought contest, Brown was disappointed that his opponent’s coach Eric Nicksick gave him the cold shoulder. Nicksick was understandably frustrated by the close call not going his fighter’s way, but Brown still feels that the situation could have been handled better.
