Anderson Silva disappointed by the Treatment he gets in UFC

ANDERSON SILVA IS THE LATEST fighter to come out and express his displeasure about the UFC.

Silva, who fought at UFC 200 on a short-notice against Daniel Cormier, said that he didn’t even receive a thank you from Dana White after his fight.

“I haven’t even received a ‘thank you’ from Dana (White), or Lorenzo (Fertitta) after the last fight. Of course, I was the one who wanted to fight, who took the bout, but I know my worth, my importance,” He said.

Silva stepped into the fight against Cormier on a two day notice after Jon Jones was tested positive by USADA. The fighter also pointed out the ill-treatment that Brazilian fighters are getting in the UFC.

“I was very disappointed with the lack of respect that the UFC has been treating the Brazilian athletes with. I’m an athlete who took the sport to another level. I don’t get, or have got, people’s due respect. This has made me very upset, sad, and disappointed with the UFC,” he added.

Earlier, Jose Aldo had come out asking his release from the promotion after which Khabib Nurmagomedov had also threatened to leave UFC if he doesn’t get a title fighter after UFC 205.
