Bobby Green, who knocked down Jared Gordon with a headbutt and then finished off his opponent on the ground, is confident that the organization should pay him a bonus for winning, despite the fact that the fight was declared a no contest.
“I’m going to let my feelings out today,” the American lightweight said at a press conference after UFC Fight Night 222. “Fuck it all. I understand that we have butted heads. I tried to elbow him, he ducked and we collided, but he was still moving. He tried to draw me a damn triangle.”
“I resisted his triangle and he still moved normally. Already after I carried out the finishing move, it was over with him. But before that, he was in perfect order and moving. And now they’re trying to take my money away from me – that’s why I’m so angry. I need my money, bro! I need my money!”
Having said this, Green threw down the microphone and left the press conference.
Recall that the lightweight fight, which became the third most important event of the event, was stopped at around 4:35 of the first round, and after watching the replay, the representatives of the Athletic Commission decided to correct the mistake of referee Keith Peterson, who did not notice the violation, and recognized the fight as invalid.
