Just yesterday, during the Rousey vs. Carano presser, “Rowdy” used Valentina Shevchenko’s name and the latter’s other ventures as an example to show that UFC fighters cannot rely on fight pay alone to survive.
After Jon Jones’ recent lowball claim, Zuffa’s signing of Conor Benn, and Eddie Hearnpushing for a revolution, now “Rowdy” has joined the long list of individuals who have issues with how the UFC has treated and underpaid fighters, and the trend continues.Rousey at the presser was busy taking shots at her ex-boss,Dana White. She also opined that the UFC is one of the worst places to go:
“The White House Card sucks… The UFC is one of the worst places to go. So many of their top athletes are leaving to find and pay elsewhere.”
She then dragged Shevchenko’s name into the mix and added:
“It’s why their champions like Valentina [Shevchenko] are selling pictures of their ti*ties on OnlyFans.”
