Manager of the Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) Dana White declared that promoted fighters would once again be allowed to participate in fights with their country’s flags.
— The flags are back. I was on vacation on Mexican Independence Day and the lack of a flag was driving me crazy. So I thought, “Fuck that.” We return the flags.
There’s a lot going on in such a big company. It’s impossible to micromanage everything. Sometimes things are done for the right reasons or something else. Everyone knows how I feel about a lot of things. Basically, “I don’t care” is the answer to most questions.
Everyone is too soft, everyone is too sensitive to everything. When the decision was made to do this (ban flags), I said to myself, “What’s the problem if they don’t have flags?” If flags hurt you, that’s too bad,” White said as quoted by MMAJunkie.
In April last year, Ecuadorian fighter Marlon Vera said he was banned from participating in the fight against American Rob Font with his country’s flag.
All tournaments CFU broadcast live on the TV channels “” and “Match!” Fighter”.
