In his most recent match versus Jared Gordon, Bobby Green is assessed with playing dirty. Yesterday, Green addressed all of the charges and blasted the critiques for unfairly attacking his playing style.
Bobby Green and Jared Gordon were slated to face off during this week’s UFC Fight Night at the UFC Apex facility in Enterprise, Nevada, a neighborhood of the Las Vegas Metropolitan Area in the United States. An unintentional head clash, however, resulted in a no contest in the eagerly awaited and the only lightweight battle of the main card.

What did Bobby Green have to say about Jared Gordon’s head collision?
A day after the fight night, “King” made an appearance on the MMA Hour and discussed his no-contest match with Ariel Helwani. The seasoned MMA fighter claims that the accusations made against him are completely untrue.
“I can see if a mother****er is doing some intentional bulls***, and that’s the narrative that I want to change today. It’s the narrative that some people have been putting out there that, like I’m a dirty f***ing fighter. ” said Bobby.
The Californian fighter has been competing in mixed martial arts since 2008 and has been a fighter in the UFC for more than ten years. As a highly experienced MMA personality, the lightweight fighter is quite conscious of his reputation.
“Hold the f*** up. Like I planned to head-butt a guy. I’m too f***ing skilled, okay? To ever stoop that low. I fight with dignity, honor, integrity.” Bobby added.

The 36-year-old fighter’s most recent victory came against Nasrat Haqparast in 2022. However, he lost against Drew Dobber and Islam Makhachev in quick succession after that. King was really optimistic about defeating Flash and getting back on the winning track.
